[1]Women's March

  

Happy May, John.

We have an exciting announcement to share today:

Between International Workers Day on May 1st and Mothers Day on May 9th,
Women's March will host May Days: A collection of various organizing
actions that focus on building power for women to fuel our feminist
future. [ [link removed] ]In honor of today's big launch, will you chip in
$3 to help get us started off strong?

The last year has made it urgently clear that Congress must pass policies
that ensure women can survive AND thrive beyond this pandemic. Women are
experiencing the worst effects of the COVID-19 recession. As President
Biden noted in his joint address to Congress, over 3 million women dropped
out of the workforce. Women, especially women of color, have been impacted
the most by wage cuts, layoffs, loss of health insurance due to
unemployment, and increasing child care costs.

Women all across the country are being expected to do it all — work, child
care, chores, virtual schooling — and we're on the brink. That’s why we’re
putting together various organizing actions this month to make sure
women's voices are heard.

[ [link removed] ]It takes significant resources and planning to launch an event campaign
like this one. In honor of today's kick-off of our May Days action
campaign, can you donate $3 to help power this work and
help us fight for the transformative policies women need right now?

We can't forget this, John:
The challenges women face in this pandemic aren't new.

This pandemic has exacerbated the long-time problems women in our country
face, the disparities that have formed from an economy that puts profits
over people, and the broken systems that are supposed to protect the most
vulnerable.

The majority of essential workers and caregivers in our lives who carried
us through this pandemic are women. They should be recognized,
compensated, and supported as such. But instead, wage workers are still
saddled with a minimum wage of $7.25, rents are increasing, evictions are
looming, jobs are lost, and health care bills stack up. While an
increasing number of women have been plunged into debt, chaos, and grief,
billionaires have only lined their pockets.

This past year has been an urgent reminder that we must continue fighting
toward a feminist future. A feminist future is a future that works for
everyone — the millions of us who have been denied a seat at the table in
the form of good clean jobs, affordable health care, a chance to grow up
outside the threat of state violence, affordable childcare, and good
schools.

We must continue coming together as a movement to demand the change we
need and deserve. We’re so excited to launch the May Days actions campaign
today — [ [link removed] ]if you're ready to show your support in this fight, can you
make a donation today to fund our organizing work? We'll be in touch later
today with more details about all the ways you can get involved, but if
you can afford to chip in $3 or more to get us started,
it'd mean so much.

Together,

Women’s March

P.S. Pulling off a large-scale organizing campaign like the May Days
action campaign we're launching today requires a lot of planning, time,
and resources. [ [link removed] ]This is the kind of important, women-led work that
Women's March is proud to be focusing our efforts on in 2021, so will you
donate $3 or anything you can to help get this big campaign
off the ground?
