John,

We need your help to ensure the Senate doesn’t leave town until it passes the Build Back Better Act.

More than 450 national organizations have already signed-on to this letter. Become a grassroots co-signer by sending this letter to your senators today!

The Build Back Better Act will make historic investments in our communities, our people and our country. It will maintain enhanced Child Tax Credit payments being delivered directly to families who need them for an additional year—funded by finally making the wealthy and corporations pay a fairer share of taxes. If the Senate fails to act before their recess, families won’t get their monthly payment in January. For a family with two children, ages 4 and 7, that’s a loss of $550―money they need for food, gas, heat and the post-holiday bills. Worse yet, if the Senate stalls on the Child Tax Credit, nearly 10 million children could fall back into poverty.

We can't allow that to happen.

Together, we are applying as much grassroots pressure as we can to demand the Senate extend the enhanced Child Tax and Earned Income Tax Credits, lower the costs of health care, housing, and child care, and invest in the first-ever federal paid leave program.

By passing the Build Back Better Act, we have the chance to create good jobs, lower costs for millions of seniors and families, address the climate crisis, provide protections for millions of immigrants who call this country home, and much, much more.

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.
