John —
We believe that it’s time to invest in care jobs. These are jobs that we know are here to stay because care jobs can’t be outsourced or automated. Investing in care jobs will improve the quality of life for all of us who need care now and who will need it in the future.
If you agree, take action today and tell Congress to increase access to care services and support almost 48 million unpaid family caregivers [[link removed]] .

The White House joined the care movement when it pledged to invest $400 billion for a care infrastructure.
We need Congress to do the same by delivering a reconciliation bill with a $400 billion investment in home and community-based services (HCBS). This investment would raise wages for care workers — most of whom are women of color — to ensure they’re able to build financial security for themselves and their families.
This much-needed investment will also create more quality care options so family caregivers can return to the workforce knowing that their loved ones are in good hands and will strengthen our care infrastructure by creating an estimated 1.1 million new jobs each year over the next decade, including nearly 800,000 care jobs, and ensuring a true, equitable economic recovery for all.
We have the once-in-a-generation opportunity to ensure care jobs are good jobs and that our loved ones can receive the care they need to live and age with dignity and respect.
Congress is currently on August recess, but care doesn't get to take a break . That's why we're asking our entire supporter list to let Congress know we aren't taking a break, either . Take action today and urge Congress to seize this moment and deliver a reconciliation package with a $400 billion investment in home and community-based services. [[link removed]]

The pandemic made it clear — care is universal. Those who claim to put American workers first should listen to the American people: we want to live and age in our homes, we want higher wages, and we want to get back to work. A full $400 billion in HCBS investments will make this economic transformation possible. We need an economy that works for all, not just a select few.
Sign the petition today and urge Congress to deliver a reconciliation package with a $400 billion investment in home and community-based services. [[link removed]]
