Friends,

Today marks one year since the passage of the American Rescue Plan.

The bill included additional stimulus checks, expanded unemployment benefits, relief for local governments and school districts, expanded child tax credits, and relief for small businesses struggling to stay afloat during the pandemic.

Despite polling showing that 70% of Americans supported the American Rescue Plan, the $1.9 trillion stimulus plan passed the Democratic House of Representatives in a 220 to 211 vote, with zero Republican votes.

When President Biden signed this bill into law less than fifty days into his first term, the growth of new unemployment claims slowed, continuing claims decreased, and the American economy was given a desperately needed boost.

Since then, America has displayed a record comeback, breaking records for GDP and job growth.

Here in Rhode Island, we received $1.1 billion in federal stimulus funds from the American Rescue Plan, funding which has gone to investments in our public schools and child care, emergency rental and homeowner assistance, and direct assistance through PPP loans for small businesses and expanded unemployment benefits.

And not a single Republican Representative voted for this relief.

Will you celebrate one year of the American Rescue Plan with a contribution of $20.22 today so that House Democrats can continue to build on our economic recovery from the pandemic for years to come? [[link removed]]

DONATE NOW [[link removed]]Even as inflation drives up the cost of grocery and utility bills, and Russian aggression in Ukraine forces gas prices through the roof, we must protect the progress. Democrats have delivered critical economic relief before, and we are prepared to do so again — but we can only do it with a strong Democratic majority.

To setting new records in 2022,
— Team Cicilline
