John, we're emailing you from Capitol Hill with an important request.
Here’s what you need to know: Yesterday, Empathy Network leaders, members of our Business Council, scholarship and cohort alums, and community partners from across the country flew to Washington, DC. Today, we're meeting with members of Congress on both sides of the aisle, urging them to come together and make progress on criminal justice reform, green economic growth, and investments in a high-tech future that doesn't leave anyone behind.
Sign to Support the Dream Policy Platform
Why it matters: America's prisons are a disgrace, disasters ravage our cities brought on by climate change, and lack of opportunity is holding too many back from reaching their greatest potential. That’s why we are dreaming big to fix these issues with the Dream Policy Platform. This comprehensive suite of policies lays out solutions that Congress can unite on this year.
Congresses support and passage of the Dream Policy Platform would:
- Advance criminal justice reform by supporting the EQUAL Act
- Address the climate crisis by ensuring that at least 40% of qualified Inflation Reduction Act programs go towards disadvantaged communities and are contracted to at least 15% of minority-owned businesses.
- Invest in a high-tech future by broadening access to STEM education and capital for minority-owned businesses.
Here’s how you can help: Sign to support the Dream Policy Platform and tell your representatives that we demand change for a better America.
Tell Rep. Boyle you support the Dream Policy Platform.
Each person that signs on is another voice calling on Congress to find a way to work together to create a more just and prosperous future. The more people we get to sign onto our Dream Policy Platform, the more leverage we have in our meetings. Don't wait. Add your name.
Until dreams are real,
