Indivisibles,
If you’ve been keeping up with our emails, you’ll know that we’ve found
ourselves in a big moment: we have an opportunity to leverage the push
around recovery and budget reconciliation to win on some massive
progressive priorities.
After conservative Democrats in the House attempted to revolt against the
prevailing strategy supported by progressives and Democratic leadership,
we now have something that really ups the urgency: a deadline. We need to
ensure that an inclusive recovery package is ready to go by September 27,
and [ [link removed] ]that it includes all our top priorities.
So, what are our top priorities for the bill?
* A pathway to citizenship for millions of immigrants;
* Lowering drug prices, expanding Medicare to cover vision, dental, and
hearing, and lowering the eligibility age to 60 years old;
* Investments in climate, including a Clean Energy Standard (with no
fossil fuels!) and a Civilian Climate Corps;
* Investments in housing, especially deeply affordable housing and
housing for unhoused populations;
* Historic investments in the care economy including universal child
care, paid leave and home and community-based care and;
* Address extreme wealth inequality by taxing the ultra-rich and big
corporations so they finally pay their fair share.
The House will be moving on the bill first -- that means you need to call
your representative and let them know you expect them to support an
inclusive recovery package, and to pass it before voting on the bipartisan
infrastructure bill. [ [link removed] ]Click here to be connected directly to your
representative’s office and tell them to pass an inclusive recovery
package before the infrastructure vote.
Our power is in our advocacy, and by calling your member of Congress, you
can ensure we bank some good, substantial wins for folks around the
country.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
