Dear Friend,
You’re not alone in your struggles to care for your family and loved ones.
Mother’s Day is this coming Sunday, and MomsRising is making a power move
on behalf of moms, parents, care workers, and caregivers. We’re organizing
the first-ever MOMibuster, raising the voices of hundreds and hundreds of
real moms, parents, care workers, and caregivers across the country, who
will be sharing their stories – including stories like yours – to demand
that Congress advance the care infrastructure policies we need for our
families and for the economy to thrive.

before Mother’s Day on Facebook, YouTube and elsewhere on social media.
We are going BIG this Mother’s Day weekend to demand change – and we need
your help to turbo-power our impact. We’re turning the tables on Congress
and filibustering them. The multi-hour MOMibuster will feature 2- to
3-minute videos from moms, parents, caregivers, and leaders all over the
country, one after the other sharing their situations and the care
policies they need, and driving home the message: Care. Can’t. Wait.
By tuning in for a few minutes, a few hours, or for all of it (!!!),
you’ll know that you’re not alone. And by tuning in, you’ll also help
intensify the spotlight on this very special Facebook event and make it
even more powerful, because when others see you join, they will want to
join too. The more people who tune in, the greater our reach, and the more
powerful the event will be.

before Mother’s Day on Facebook, YouTube and elsewhere on social media.
During the MOMibuster, you’ll hear real experiences from real moms and
caregivers across the country, talking about how hard these last few years
of the pandemic have been. You’ll hear stories about childcare and
eldercare, about how important the monthly Child Tax Credits have been for
helping to make ends meet, about how the impact of not having paid family
and medical leave has been especially hard, and so much more. With the
MOMibuster, we’re putting a spotlight on the fact that in order to
succeed, our families and our economy need: affordable child care, free
pre-K, home- and community-based services, full access to quality maternal
healthcare for everyone, paid family and medical leave, monthly Child Tax
Credit checks, living wages for all care workers, a path to citizenship,
and more.
(To have an even more powerful impact, the MOMibuster will also be aired
on rolling display billboards around the U.S. Capitol for the Saturday,
Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday of Mother’s Day weekend so no member of
Congress can ignore them, and be referenced in a NY Times ad the Friday
before Mother’s Day. We’ll also be delivering books of stories to every
member of Congress along with a paper flower bouquet on the Tuesday after
Mother’s Day and mailing in enamel pins. One thing is clear: Through all
our efforts, our stories and voices will be heard– and we are a powerful
force together!)
Please bring your own power to the MOMibuster by sharing your own
individual story in the comments, and crossposting the MOMibuster to your
Facebook and other social media channels.
[ [link removed] ]RSVP for the online MOMibuster now. We need your power! (Plus you’ll
hear care stories that let you know that you are not alone, and that
inspire you to keep going!)
Please forward this email to all the moms and caregivers in your life and
ask them to RSVP for the MOMibuster too.
Together, we will make the MOMibuster powerful, unstoppable,
nation-lifting, cost-saving, and transformational!
– Gloria, Kristin, Elyssa, Donna, Xochitl, Ruth, and the entire
MomsRising/MamasconPoder team
