Friend,
We haven’t seen your name yet on the petition we sent earlier this week. We’re reaching out again today to remind you of the importance of getting President Biden’s pandemic relief program signed into law. We’re in this fight together, and we’re eager to give working American families the support they need.
Please join us in signing the petition to demonstrate to Congressional leaders that the public demands action on President Biden’s plans.>>>
This bill is a bold, significant step towards keeping American families safe and secure during these trying times, and we can’t pass up this opportunity to make the long-term, systemic change to the conditions that got us here in the first place.
Now is the time for bold solutions -- we hope you’ll join us.
Thank you,
Joel Berg

Friend,
President Biden has proposed the boldest, biggest administrative step in decades to lift impoverished families up and reduce food insecurity for struggling families. The executive orders he signed on January 22, which increase and expand SNAP benefits, are a critical lifeline to millions of families that cannot afford to wait. Hunger Free America takes great pride in our role successfully advocating for these administrative actions.
However, these actions are not a substitute for comprehensive legislative relief. And for long term changes, we need you to ask Congress to act now.
SIGN NOW to urge Congress to pass the policies necessary to aid food insecure Americans.>>>
This bill would provide comprehensive economic relief including:
- Raise the national minimum wage to $15
- Provide direct payments to struggling Americans
- Extend AND increase emergency unemployment benefits
- Extend a federal moratorium on housing evictions
- Extend the increase to SNAP (formerly called food stamps) and WIC benefits
The President’s plan to provide “equitable economic relief” is everything we’ve been fighting for in these trying times, and provides tangible actions to significantly reduce poverty and hunger in America long term. We need to do our part to turn these plans into actionable solutions.
Sign this petition to demand the Senate acts NOW to execute President Biden’s economic relief plans>>>
SIGN NOW
If, as the President said, “we cannot and will not let people go hungry,” then we must make our voices heard.
Thank you,
Joel Berg
