Dear Friend,
The $3.5 trillion budget plan being negotiated in Congress right now has
some of the most progressive steps forward in a generation:
* Universal pre-K and a childcare benefit for working families
* Tuition-free community college
* Paid and medical leave for 12 weeks
* Dental, vision, and hearing benefits in Medicare
* Consumer rebates for green energy and tax incentives for green
transportation
* Affordable housing and a public land-conservation work program
But Senator Joe Manchin and other conservative Democrats are threatening
to torpedo it. We can't let that happen.
We need every single Democratic senator on board, including Manchin.
That's why we are asking you to call your senators right now and tell them
they need to vote for this budget.

Yours in the fight for a more progressive California and country,

Raquel, and Scottie (the Courage team)

Courage California (formerly Courage Campaign) makes sure our democracy works for ALL of us by fighting corruption in California politics. We believe the solution lies in exposing and solving systemic problems through strategic organizing, enhancing coordination between progressive organizations, and mobilizing civic engagement from our communities, particularly voters of color, young voters, and self-identified progressives.
