John,

This is a historic moment, which you made possible.

The U.S. House just passed an investment in our future on a scale not seen since FDR’s New Deal. It will lower costs for millions of families on everything from healthcare and prescription drugs to childcare to eldercare to housing and much, much more. And, it’s 100% paid for by making the rich and corporations begin to pay their fair share!

If you aren’t on Twitter, that’s OK. With the fight now turning to the U.S. Senate we need your help to ensure this investment and tax fairness agenda remains as strong as possible. Can you chip in $5 today to power our campaign to win?

Here’s a quick look at some of the most important items that are included in the Build Back Better Act just passed by the House:

✔ Our country’s first paid family and medical leave program to ensure no one has to choose between caring for a loved one and putting food on the table;

✔ Medicare drug price negotiations to lower the cost of some drugs and a $2,000 annual cap on seniors out of pocket prescription drug costs under Medicare;

✔ Medicare expansion to include hearing coverage;

✔ Expanded Medicaid homecare to keep seniors and people with disabilities in their homes and active in their communities while also paying homecare workers a livable wage;

✔ Universal Pre-k for all 3- and 4-year olds, and affordable childcare, significantly lowering out-of-pocket costs for millions of families;

✔ Expanded monthly Child Tax Credit payments to 35 million U.S. households;

✔ Housing investments including help with affording rent, upgrading public housing, homeowner rehabilitation assistance, weatherization, improved housing accessibility for seniors and people with disabilities;

✔ Immigration reform to ensure millions of Americans can fully participate in our economy without fear of deportation;

✔ Clean energy investments to combat the climate crisis;

✔ And much, much more!

These investments are 100% paid for by closing tax loopholes used by the rich and corporations, requiring a 15% corporate minimum tax to stop wealthy corporations from dodging their fair share of taxes, ending corporate tax breaks that encourage the outsourcing of jobs and the shifting of profits to tax havens, taxing firms that enrich shareholders rather than invest in workers, catching rich tax cheats that are evading $160 billion in taxes every year, creating a special higher tax rate for the ultra-wealthy, and more.
