John,

By now, you might’ve heard about the battle over President Biden’s Build Back Better plan going on in Washington. But if not, here’s a quick recap:

Since Democrats have majorities in both chambers of Congress, the time is now to pass President Biden’s agenda and deliver the relief for working families we promised on the campaign trail last year.

But discussions have come to a stalemate as conservative Democrats propose major cuts to our comprehensive spending bill.

John, here’s what’s currently on the chopping block:

• Critical investments in climate action and green jobs
• The expanded Child Tax Credit and affordable child care
• Tuition free community college and education funding
• Medicare expansions and lower prescription drug prices

Barbara has always stood up for our shared progressive values, and today is no different. She will continue to advocate for working families and fight to ensure these priorities aren’t left out of the final deal. It’s what our communities need, and it’s what they deserve.
