Dear MoveOn member,

Trillions of dollars invested in jobs, infrastructure, supporting the care
economy, and fighting climate change.

These are the promises of President Joe Biden's American Jobs Plan—a
generational investment in rebuilding a stronger, greener, more equitable
and sustainable America, which Senator Elizabeth Warren called "a
game-changer."^1

But as we saw with the American Rescue Plan—President Biden's massive
COVID relief bill—just because a piece of legislation is beneficial for
Americans doesn't mean it'll have an easy time making it through Congress.

Already, Mitch McConnell has vowed to fight this bill "every step of the
way."^2 And we know that there's always the danger of it getting watered
down, jammed up in arcane processes, or delayed by the GOP's obstruction.

That's why we're taking the time now, right after the plan has been
announced, to start thinking about how MoveOn members will help push
Congress to make the final legislation as big and bold as possible—and
pass it quickly.

Will you share which piece of the American Jobs Plan is your top
priority—and then take a 2-minute survey to tell us more about what
excites you about the American Jobs Plan and what actions you'll take to
help it pass?

My top priority is:

* [ Which ]Investing in green jobs and fighting the climate crisis.

* [ Which ]Rebuilding American's infrastructure, including our roads and
bridges.

* [ Which ]Investing in new infrastructure, such as universal, high-speed
broadband.

* [ Which ]Transforming the care economy with more high-paying jobs.

* [ Which ]I have another top priority in the American Jobs Plan.

Here's some of what's in President Biden's plan:

* Fix and rebuild highways, bridges, airports, and transit systems.

* Tackle the climate crisis by creating hundreds of thousands of green
jobs.

* Create jobs and raise wages for essential home care workers.

* Ensure workers have the right to organize, join a union, and bargain
collectively with their employers.

* And more!^3

Over the weeks ahead, the real, transformational opportunities to rebuild
our country, create millions of jobs, and fight climate change will be
front and center. It will be a huge fight: Republicans in Congress have
made clear that they are against working together on this plan, and
right-wing billionaires and corporations are going to spend big money
trying to divide Americans.

[ Which ]But we know how incredibly necessary it is to invest trillions in
rebuilding our economy. Tell us your priorities and share how you'll join
other MoveOn members in this fight.

Thanks for all you do.

Want to support our work? Together, we made Donald Trump a one-term
president! Now, it's time to expand access to health care, fight for
citizenship for the undocumented, reform policing, and tackle the climate
crisis.

Will you chip in to power the fight for bold, progressive change?
