Dear Friend,
Mother’s Day is coming up, and after more than two years of pandemic
stress, we are going BIG on our special day to demand change. We’re
turning the tables on Congress and filibustering them. Yes, we’re going
to, as we call it, MOMibuster!
For eight hours over Mother’s Day weekend, hundreds of moms, dads,
parents, leaders, and caregivers across the nation will be sharing our
care stories via submitted pre-recorded short videos, one after the other,
and calling out elected leaders for not building the care infrastructure
our nation’s families, businesses and economy need to function – for not
giving us care!
[ [link removed] ]Would you join the MOMibuster? Sharing your care story via a short 1 to
3 minute video from your cell phone won’t take more than a few minutes of
your time and will make a huge difference! ARE YOU IN? CLICK HERE TO LEARN
MORE!
Here’s how the MOMibuster will work: Just record a simple video of up to 3
minutes telling us what’s caused you stress as a mom, dad, parent or
caregiver, and/or tell us a bit about the programs and policies you want
to see our country put in place (like affordable childcare and pre-K, paid
family/medical leave, healthcare, and more). We’ll give you simple and
clear instructions so making the video will take just a few minutes and
will be easy peasy!
Part celebration, part plea for help, and part call to action, MomsRising
is turning the filibuster on its head. Instead of a tool that blocks the
progress moms need, this MOMibuster will actually work for parents,
sending the message that we want and need care policies that allow us to
both support and care for our families – a care infrastructure that
includes affordable child care, free pre-K, paid family and medical leave,
home- and community-based services, quality maternal health care for all
of us, prescription meds we can afford, a tax system that supports
families instead of lining the pockets of wealthy corporations and
billionaires, and more.
No more excuses from the lawmakers continuing to ignore the needs of moms
and families, right? If you agree, [ [link removed] ]click here to learn how to join the
MOMibuster!
Not only moms, but dads and parents, daughters and sons, and every kind of
caregiver and care provider is welcome to join too! And we welcome videos
in Spanish, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, ASL, and any other language.
Times have been tough and everyone has struggled with care. Please forward
this invitation to family, friends, colleagues, mom and parent groups, and
everyone, so they have the chance to join the MOMibuster too!
There’s no better time to demand care from our elected leaders than around
Mother’s Day. Together, we’ll light up the Internet with our voices and
make this a transformative event.
In community and solidarity,
Gloria, Kristin, Lisa, Nate, and the entire MomsRising/MamásConPoderTeam
