John,
Rashida isn't interested in a vote on "BIF" — the corporate-backed, small infrastructure "framework" that establishment Democrats are pushing. We're with her.
She's reiterating what she's been saying, along with Bernie, Cori Bush, AOC, Ilhan Omar, and Pramila Jayapal. A "framework" backed by corporate lobbyists is a threat to the environment and the people.
Corporate Democrats have spent months stripping cornerstone policies from the Build Back Better Act like free community college, Medicare expansion, prescription drug reform, paid family and medical leave, a billionaire’s tax, a pathway to citizenship for immigrants, and so much more. BUT these so-called Democrats have been pushing this smaller infrastructure framework (BIF) the whole time, because that’s what their wealthy donors and corporate lobbyists want.
Rashida, AOC, Ilhan, and other Justice Democrats have made it clear: We’re ready to legislate for the PEOPLE, not corporate lobbyists and Wall Street.
We need to Hold the Line and continue fighting for the people and action on climate change. Can you rush a contribution to Justice Democrats right now to help us Hold the Line? We need the progressive movement strong and united right now, and we have a $25,000 end-of-month goal to hit!
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
