John,
Tomorrow, the U.S. House is expected to vote on President Biden’s $1.9 trillion comprehensive pandemic relief package. We need to make sure that this bill meets the urgency of the moment.
Call your U.S. representative today and urge them to pass an economic and healthcare stimulus package that includes direct assistance to people and families, funding for a nationwide vaccination program, assistance to people who have lost work, healthcare expansion to millions of people, state and local aid that benefits your local public services, and so much more.
Call your U.S. representative at: 1-855-329-5629
Suggested Call Script:
Hello, my name is [First and Last Name] from [City/Town]. I’m calling to urge the Representative to vote YES on the American Rescue Plan Act, and to make sure this bill is as robust as possible.
The bill must include:
-
Additional $1,400 direct payments per person in the U.S.
-
An extension of $400 per week jobless benefits
-
Financial aid to state and local governments to preserve public services
-
An increase of the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour
-
An expansion of the Child Tax Credit to cut childhood poverty in half
-
And help to millions of people who are struggling to afford health insurance and out of pocket healthcare costs.
Please share my thoughts with the representative and urge them to vote YES on President Biden’s $1.9 trillion COVID relief package. Thank you.
At a time when millionaires and billionaires have never had it so good, we need to make sure that critical aid is reaching people, families and communities most in need.
Thank you,
Frank Clemente
