Jack, nationally, we still suffer more than 200 daily deaths from COVID-19, and more variants are on the way. Despite this, the GOP wants to shove the pandemic under the rug and call it over. They don't want to continue providing the desperately needed funding for testing, vaccines, and treatments.
Sign and send the petition to your U.S. senators: We need new COVID funding to continue successfully fighting the pandemic.
SIGN THE PETITION
The estimated number of Americans suffering negative health effects four weeks after an initial bout of COVID--an event known as Long COVID--is 7.7 to 23 million Americans. If Congress fails to provide COVID funding, we won't have enough money to research Long COVID and discover more about its prevalence, risk factors, and symptoms.
Congress must act now and approve funding to continue our return to normalcy and also to put in place an insurance policy for tomorrow. If they do nothing, we won't be able to provide treatments to people who desperately need them or continue researching this disease to help the people still dealing with its after-effects.
Sign and send the petition to your U.S. senators: We need new COVID funding to continue successfully fighting the pandemic.

Thanks for all you do,

P.S. Below is an email we sent out earlier demanding more COVID funding:
Jack, the COVID funding our government needs is about to run out.
Sign and send the petition to Congress: Approve emergency supplemental funding now to continue the fight against COVID.
SIGN THE PETITION
Some elected officials want to shove the pandemic under the rug and call it over. But we are still suffering from more than 1,200 daily deaths from COVID-19. Congress must act now and approve funding that invests in vaccine doses, treatments, and testing for a return to normalcy and an insurance policy for tomorrow.
Congress is refusing to provide additional funding for the tools that have allowed us to get the pandemic under control so far. Lawmakers stripped COVID-relief money from a funding bill right before voting on it after they could not reach an agreement to offset new spending.
Sign and send the petition to Congress: Approve emergency supplemental funding now to continue the fight against COVID.
SIGN THE PETITION
This is unacceptable. The progress we've made with the pandemic has only been possible because we've had the funding for the tools we need to combat the virus. Without it, we could easily slide back into a more dire situation. As the late Justice Ginsburg said, that's "like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm." We cannot let our leaders slow our progress any further. Congress must act now and approve funding additional COVID funding.
Sign and send the petition to your U.S. senators: We need new COVID funding to continue successfully fighting the pandemic.
SIGN THE PETITION
Thank you for fighting with us,
