Pass Build Back Better NOW! SIGN NOW

Friend - This week is a YES WE CAN moment!

We will win free Pre-K for 3 and 4 year olds, policies that cut child care costs in half, paid family/medical leave, home- and community-based services, historic investments in maternal health, more affordable medicines, and an expanded Child Tax Credit, all of which lift our families, businesses and economy. We Will. Win. The. Build. Back. Better. Act!

We are shouting from the rooftops to everyone who is worrying after seeing the news that the Bipartisan Infrastructure package passed last week, but not the Build Back Better Act yet -- and wondering if we will win the Build Back Better Act... The answer is YES!

Why YES!?  Because of you, your voice, your persistence, your push for change. And now it’s time to double down on keeping the pressure on!  *Tell the U.S. House to pass the Build Back Better Act ASAP!

With our voices, and our continued engagement, winning the Build Back Better Act will be both transformational and inevitable. In fact, when the President signs Build Back Back Better (and thanks go to YOU for working with us to make sure that happens), people will finally have:

• Four weeks of paid family/medical leave;
• Child care bills will be cut in half for most families;
• Free pre-school will be open to every three- and four-year old;
• 35 million families will receive the fully refundable Child Tax Credit that lifts 50% of children out of poverty;
• Measures to address racial health disparities and end the Black maternal health crisis will be put in place;
• Access to high-quality home care will be expanded for older Americans and people with disabilities;
• Health care access will be improved and prescription drug prices reduced; 
• Millions of good jobs will be created and wages lifted for care workers;
• And lasting protections finally put in place for immigrants.

This fight for the Build Back Better Act is lengthy, difficult, AND… importantly, can help transform our nation for the better when we win -- and together we WILL win.
