John,

The House is hoping to vote on the historic Build Back Better legislation THIS WEEK―and to pay for it by making the rich and corporations finally pay their fair share.

Join CHN and our national coalition partners and call your representative and senators today! It’s time for Congress to act with the urgency this moment demands.

We’ve provided a suggested call script below to help with your call.

Suggested call script:

“Hello, my name is _______ and I live in ___________. I urge the representative to support the Build Back Better plan for health care, housing and jobs, to help children and families and protect against climate change, by making billionaires and corporations pay their fair share in taxes.

• President Biden’s Build Back Better plan will ease the burden of high costs experienced by working families and the aging and pay for it by making big corporations and those earning over $400,000 pay their fair share.
• It will reduce child poverty, make child care, housing, and health care affordable, expand education, allow immigrants to work without fear of deportation, and create hundreds of thousands of good-paying jobs.
• Polls show this agenda is overwhelmingly supported by the public.

Please share my thoughts with the representative and urge them to pass President Biden’s agenda this week. Thank you.”

When you’re done with your call, call your senators!

One of the most significant investments in human needs in our lifetimes is on the line. More jobs with better pay―more health care, housing, and child care―lifting children out of poverty―allowing immigrants to fully participate in our economy without fear of deportation―protecting against the ravages of climate change. The Build Back Better Act will improve the lives of millions of people living in the United States.

This bill must pass. With narrow margins in the House and Senate, every single vote matters. The Build Back Better plan will secure critically important investments in working families, marginalized people, our communities, and our country.

Thank you for all that you do to demand a future that includes all of us.
