John,

We’ve made significant progress in addressing economic disparities for children, youth, and families with the passage of the American Rescue Plan in March. And that’s just the beginning.

President Biden has proposed the American Jobs and American Families Plans which would extend short term investments and fight for our future―addressing deep-seated racial inequities in education, jobs, health, housing, and income, while making the rich and corporations pay their fair share in taxes.

Congress and the president want to act―but with narrow margins in the House and Senate, they need to hear from us in order to garner the political will.

Join us for a 1-hour webinar on Friday, July 16 at 2 p.m. ET to learn what you can do to help pass landmark legislation that would advance racial equity, lift millions out of poverty, help all kids reach their potential, get workers better pay and benefits, and expand health coverage to millions of Americans. Click here to RSVP.

When Congress adjourns for recess this August, we have an ideal opportunity to build momentum for lasting change.

This upcoming webinar, "Making August Recess Count: Building Support for Federal Recovery Legislation to Advance Racial Equity," will be hosted by Center on Budget and Policy Priorities and the Coalition on Human Needs. It will detail the next steps we can take to keep the pressure on Congress to demand meaningful progress.

Here's what we we will cover during our webinar:

• Why recovery legislation is so important, and how it can advance racial equity;

• What comes next, and the strategy moving forward;

• What tools, resources, and tactics you can use for engaging members of Congress next month when they are in recess.

This webinar will be captioned and recorded. So even if you can't attend, please be sure to register for the recording and follow-up materials.

John, join us for a 1-hour webinar Friday, July 16 at 2 p.m. ET to learn what you can do to help advance our agenda. To RSVP for this critical webinar click here.

Thank you for all you do to demand accountability from our political leaders to fight for our shared priorities and a stronger democracy.
