Thanks in part to thousands of Public Citizen supporters who took action yesterday ...
It looks like the handful of so-called “moderates” in the House of Representatives who were stalling action on voting rights and progressive budget priorities may have come to their senses.
But we can’t sit back and just hope these holdouts do the right thing.
Take action right now to keep any Democrats from backsliding when Congress votes *this afternoon* on moving forward with President Biden’s $3.5 trillion “Build Back Better” plan and on passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
Tell “moderate” Democrats in Congress:
We need to defend the right to vote and we need to invest in America’s future. Stop playing intra-party politics and get in line with the vast majority of your colleagues in supporting the $3.5 trillion budget plan and passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
Add your name.
Thanks for taking action.
For progress,
- Robert Weissman, President of Public Citizen
P.S. For half a century, Public Citizen has been advancing policies that put the needs of everyday Americans before the greed of billionaires and Big Business. That legacy of progress and that ongoing work could not matter more right now, as our nation transitions to a Joe Biden presidency that will be as progressive as we — you and Public Citizen, together — make it. We’re also busy undoing all the damage Trump did. And, like so many nonprofits and small businesses, we continue to experience financial strain related to the coronavirus pandemic. If you can, please make an emergency donation today to support the critical work we’re doing together or even join our popular Monthly Giving program. Thank you.
