John,

Did you see what Rep. Stephanie Murphy (D-Florida) said about the historic $3.5 trillion investment agenda?

“I have no choice but to vote ‘no’ on each subtitle and on final passage," she said, according to Roll Coll.¹

We are reminding wavering Democrats that we can afford investments in working people, the elderly, children, the sick and the poor when we finally ask corporations and the wealthy to pay their fair share.

Did you see Deborah’s email below about the digital ads we’re running in targeted states and congressional districts to demand Congress go big and bold with this budget?

Read her email and then donate $5 to keep our ads up and running to counter the massive lobbying effort by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which is trying to limit investments in our future.

Thank you for all you do to demand accountability from our political leaders and to fight for our shared priorities.

--DEBORAH'S EMAIL--

John,

Rep. Stephanie Murphy announced she plans to vote against President Biden's historic Build Back Better investment agenda because she says it was "rushed."¹

This Florida Democratic is one of a dozen members of Congress we’re targeting with digital ads, demanding they pass the full $3.5 trillion budget. Together, we are reminding moderate Democrats like Rep. Murphy that we can pass a bold budget when we finally ask the rich and corporations to pay their fair share in taxes.

The House Ways and Means Committee is planning to mark up this historic $3.5 trillion budget in the coming days. Can you chip in $5 or more to keep our digital ads running in targeted states and congressional districts like Rep. Murphy's district in Orlando? We need moderate Democrats to continue hearing directly from their constituents about the need for this long overdue investment in working people. (We are targeting Democrats because no Republican will vote in favor of this critical investment.)

Here is one of the digital ads we’re running right now in targeted congressional districts, including Rep. Murphy's, where representatives and senators have balked at supporting these historic investments.

Through these digital ads, and our full grassroots lobbying campaign, we’re driving thousands of messages to members of Congress each and every day.

We’re reminding Congress that this is what the American people demand and that this is our chance to fight for our future, for housing needs, more home care for the aging and people with disabilities, child tax credits for millions of families, nutrition, health care, child care, paid leave, and much more.

This budget is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lift up millions of people. We can't allow a handful of moderates to derail it at the last minute. Can you donate $5 today to keep our digital ads running, demanding Congress vote 'yes' on this critical $3.5 trillion investment?

Thank you for all you do to demand accountability from our political leaders and to fight for the needs of working families, the vulnerable, the sick and the poor.
