People For Member,

America must get better at investing in its care economy.

During the coronavirus pandemic, it’s become exponentially more difficult
for many seniors and people with disabilities to receive care and remain
active members of their communities. At the same time, their care workers
are struggling to survive during this time of unprecedented economic
hardship.

That’s why we need Congress to include the critical provisions of the
Better Care Better Jobs Act in the upcoming budget reconciliation package.

disabilities, and care workers by passing the Better Care Better Jobs
Act! >>

“No one should have to wait to get the care they deserve, and no care
worker should have to live below the poverty line to give this care.”-
House Representative Debbie Dingell (D-MI)

The Better Care Better Jobs Act would help seniors and people with
disabilities by strengthening and expanding access to Medicaid home- and
community-based care services and would provide better pay and benefits
for the direct care workforce.

Right now, people are not able to receive the care they need while care
workers are struggling with severe underpayment and lack of benefits, a
problem that disproportionately impacts women and people of color. The
reconciliation package is the best chance we have to get these crucial
provisions passed in time for it to make a real difference in peoples’
lives.

Jobs Act in the reconciliation package! >>

This bill helps fulfill President Biden’s commitment to investing in our
care economy by giving dignity to seniors and people with disabilities,
keeping people active in their communities, and ensuring economic
stability for some of our lowest-paid essential workers.
