The American Rescue Plan would provide desperately-needed relief for American families and businesses. Just take a look:
- A national vaccination program to contain COVID-19 and help us safely reopen schools? Check.
- Direct $1,400 payments to families? Absolutely.
- Raising the minimum wage to $15? Yes!
- Access to affordable child care? Check. (Not to mention that the American Rescue Plan is estimated to cut childhood poverty in half!)
- Emergency funding for small businesses? You bet.
These are urgent priorities that will make a real difference in people's lives. But we can't pass it alone. We need to get loud -- that means you, your friends, your family, and anyone you know who recognizes what's at stake.
Start here: Add your name to show your support for the American Rescue Plan. Our country is facing an unprecedented crisis, and it is crucial we commit to this plan now to deliver American families much-needed support.
Our country is hurting. More than 10 million Americans are unemployed, 14 million renters are behind on payments, and 29 million adults -- along with at least 8 million children -- are struggling with food insecurity. And communities of color and other underserved communities are some of the hardest hit.
It's past time we get the pandemic under control and ensure all Americans have the support they need -- so thank you for adding your name.
