Friend,
Together, we fought for once-in-a-generation investments in the American people and we won.
Every single progressive priority included in the House-passed Build Back Better Act is thanks to your hard work and the work of activists across the country―and our ever-growing Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC)!
As we’ve seen throughout the Build Back Better investment negotiations, not every Democrat in Congress is willing to stand up to Big Pharma, Big Oil, or the Chamber of Commerce. It’s thanks to the tireless efforts of progressive Democrats that we secured Build Back Better’s much-needed investments in our nation’s care infrastructure and in climate action.
Without our pushing, the rest of the Democratic Caucus would not have acted with the urgency or at the scale that we need. It’s clear that our communities and the future of our planet depend on expanding our progressive power in Congress.
In order to grow our progressive strength and deliver more victories on behalf of working people and marginalized communities, can you pitch in $5 to the Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC today?
Today, the CPC is nearly 100 members strong. That’s almost half of the House Democratic caucus! I’ve seen firsthand our growing strength as we stand up to the powerful Big Money interests that for too long have dominated our politics in Washington, DC.
Here are some key items that just passed the U.S. House in the Build Back Better Act, thanks to pushing from the CPC and grassroots activists:
-
Our country’s first paid family and medical leave program to work towards eliminating the choice between caring for a loved one and putting food on the table;
-
Medicare negotiating prescription drug prices to save seniors money;
-
Expanded Medicare to include hearing coverage;
-
Medicaid-provided homecare to keep seniors and people with disabilities in their homes and active in their communities while also paying homecare workers a fair wage;
-
Universal Pre-k for all 3- and 4-year olds, plus affordable childcare;
-
Expanded monthly Child Tax Credit payments to 35 million U.S. households;
-
Lead pipe replacement to eliminate dangerous levels of lead in our drinking water;
-
Affordable housing including homeowner rehabilitation assistance, weatherization, improved housing accessibility for seniors and people with disabilities, housing counseling, refinancing, property tax relief, and more;
-
Immigration reform to ensure millions of Americans can fully participate in our society without fear of deportation;
-
Clean energy investments to combat climate catastrophe;
-
Public transit to increase routes and service, opening doors of opportunity for urban and rural communities alike;
-
And much, much more!
