Make sure your voice is heard! Tell your members of Congress today that they must prioritize building back better for all women and families! TAKE ACTION

Dear Friend,

I know you're busy, so I’ll get to the point: We need to make sure that our members of Congress prioritize bold investments in our care infrastructure as we work to Build Back Better.  

→ Add your name to our letter urging Congress to include paid leave for all, robust investments in child care, making the child tax credit permanent, and protecting our reproductive rights and affordable health care in the infrastructure package.

An infrastructure package without sufficient support for paid family leave, child care, health care, and family care is not a complete package. As Congress takes up President Biden’s Build Back Better plan, we need our members of Congress to prioritize women and their families in all upcoming legislation. We need a big, bold infrastructure package that prioritizes:

• Permanent paid family and medical leave
• Invests at least $700 billion to direct spending for comprehensive child care and early learning systems that children, families, early educators, providers, employers and communities need to grow and thrive 
• A permanent expanded child tax credit 
• Protects reproductive rights and invests in affordable health care

Women are this country’s living infrastructure and it is time for a transformative and bold investment in our communities.

And be sure to forward this email on to your friends and family so they can take action too!

Thanks for all you do,
