John,

As Democrats in the Senate and the House come closer to making a deal on the Build Back Better package (which the media is calling “the reconciliation bill”) reporters have focused on the topline amounts and the negotiations in Congress without ever answering the question that will actually make a difference in people’s lives: What’s in the damn bill?

That’s why I’m proud to take part in Senator Bernie Sanders’s livestream tonight, which will focus on the thing that matters. Join us tonight at 8pm ET at live.berniesanders.com!

Graphic for What's In the Damn Bill: A Panel Discussion with Progressive Leaders on the Reconciliation Bill

The event features Senator Sanders, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rev. Dr. William Barber II of the Poor People’s Campaign, Mary Kay Henry, President of SEIU, Varshini Prakash of the Sunrise Movement, and… me.

Let’s be clear on something: The only reason I’m getting the chance to bring our message to Bernie Sanders’s millions of followers is because of the movement we built together.

Together, we’re going to get this bill done. We’re going to expand Medicare, lower prescription drug prices, and expand home and community-based care in this country. But we have to keep pushing. Donate $5 today to keep our movement growing!
