John,
Historic legislation like the Build Back Better Act only passes when we have a groundswell of support from the grassroots on up. Together, CHN and our coalition partners helped direct more than 500,000 messages directly to members of Congress. Thank you, John, for bringing us to this moment.
Now, with the fight moving to the Senate, our work is not done. One last obstacle to passing Build Back Better in the Senate is concern over inflation.
With inflation higher than it’s been in decades, some have wrongly pointed the finger at government spending and worry President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda will contribute to further price increases. That couldn't be further from the truth, however.
Join CHN for a special webinar on Tuesday, November 30th with guests Jared Bernstein, an economist for President Biden who is serving on the White House Council of Economic Advisers, Josh Bivens, Director of Research at the Economic Policy Institute, and Rakeen Mabud, chief economist at the Groundwork Collaborative.

Join CHN and special guests Jared Bernistein from the White House Council of Economic Advisors, Josh Bivens of the Economic Policy Institute, and Rakeen Mabud of Groundwork Collaborative for this important webinar on Tuesday, November 30th. Click here to RSVP.
We will announce the time of day soon for our November 30th webinar detailing how the Build Back Better investment agenda will help counter inflation. Remember, if you can’t make it to the webinar, you’ll be signed up to receive a captioned recording, slides, and other resources. RSVP today!
The passage of the Build Back Better Act in the House takes a monumental step toward investments not seen since FDR's New Deal.
But we have to keep pushing. Together, we are going to make sure this landmark legislation passes the Senate and gets sent to the President for his signature.
Thank you for all you do to demand accountability from our political leaders and to fight for the needs of working families, the vulnerable, the sick and the poor.
Deborah Weinstein Executive Director, Coalition on Human Needs
