With his American Jobs Plan, America Families Plan, and Made in America Tax Plan, President Biden laid out a bold progressive agenda that:
* Provides emergency relief and begins a real economic recovery from pandemic devastation, and then
* Starts bending our economy away from inequality and structural unfairness and towards equal opportunity and economic justice.

The news media refers to “infrastructure” bills, but that word means little to most people, and it places the emphasis on steel and concrete rather than people. So we refer to Biden’s three proposals collectively as the American Jobs and Families Plan (AJFP).

It’s the job of Congress to turn proposals into legislation. Our job is to tell our Members of Congress to pass an effective AJFP that provides for all of us—not just the corporate elite. Our job is to tell them we want a plan that is paid for by reversing the tax cuts that the Trump regime gave to the obscenely wealthy and giant corporations.

This week our focus is on investing in children, families, and students.

Tell your Members of Congress: ([link removed]) We demand investment in children, families, and students in the American Jobs and Families plan!

We were disappointed and angry that President Biden gave a major speech on voting rights this month without uttering the word “filibuster.” We were also dismayed last week when the president appeared to defend the filibuster at a CNN town hall:

BIDEN: I want to see the United States Congress, the United States Senate, pass S.1 and S.4, the John Lewis Act, and get it on my desk so I can sign it. (Applause.) But here’s the deal: What I also want to do—I want to make sure we bring along not just all the Democrats; we bring along Republicans, who I know know better. They know better than this.

Is our president naïve enough to believe that if we couldn’t even get ten Republicans to debate the creation of the January 6 Commission in the Senate, we would ever get ten Republican votes for any version of the voting rights legislation? This old-fashioned happy talk is depressing. We have no time to waste in protecting our voting rights.

Tell the White House: ([link removed]) Support voting rights and defend our democracy, not the filibuster!
