An obstacle in the Senate.
Yesterday, Joe Manchin said he could not support the President's popular Build Back Better Act.
When Manchin says he’d vote "no," he’s saying "no" to universal pre-K, paid leave, affordable child care, fighting climate change, Medicare expansion, affordable housing, lower prescription drug costs, home care, and immigration reform. He’s saying "no" to what people across America want, need, and deserve.
Build Back Better is the Democratic agenda. It’s President Biden’s agenda. It’s what we promised people throughout this country. Voters delivered us the House, Senate, and White House to deliver for them. Joe Manchin and the Senate can’t turn their backs on these urgent issues. It’s bad policy and it’s bad politics.
We’re not backing down for a second. We’re going to keep pushing for Build Back Better and the popular policies in this bill. Can you help Pramila redouble her efforts to fight for the people with a donation of $3 today?

Pramila fought tirelessly for the President’s agenda in the House, even as corporate lobbyists tried to stop Build Back Better. Thanks to her leadership, Democrats were able to pass it through the House last month with our progressive priorities included. And Pramila’s fight to make the largest investment in working people, families, and our communities in decades continues no matter how tough it gets or how much money they spend against us.
We cannot allow our Democratic majorities to go without passing Build Back Better. Pramila knows it and the people know it. Too much is at stake.
Can you help fuel our work to keep the pressure on and protect our progressive wins in the Build Back Better Act with a $3 donation today? We have to keep up our fight, and by chipping in today, you would be making a huge contribution to this critical work.
In solidarity,
Team Jayapal
