Joe Biden just announced his emergency legislative plan to tackle the coronavirus and reboot our economy: The American Rescue Plan.
President-elect Biden's American Rescue Plan is ambitious -- a $1.9 trillion relief package designed to change the course of the pandemic, build a bridge toward economic recovery, and cut child poverty in half.
But we know it's possible because it's no less than what the moment calls for -- and that's where you come in. We want to hear how COVID-19 has impacted you and what this package would mean to you and your family.
Your story, your voice are incredibly powerful, and I know if enough of us come forward to share just what's at stake, we can move hearts and minds and get this relief in the hands of the American people.
Add your name to endorse President-elect Biden's American Rescue Plan and share your story about what this relief would mean to you and your family.
The president-elect's plan is aimed directly at rescuing the economy and beating the virus, all by:
-
Mounting a national vaccination program, containing COVID-19, and safely reopening schools;
-
Sending $1,400 per-person checks to households across America, delivering immediate relief to working families bearing the brunt of this crisis; and
-
Supporting small businesses that have been hardest-hit by COVID-19, as well as protecting the jobs of the first responders, transit workers, and other essential workers we depend on.
President-elect Biden's American Rescue Plan is exactly what our country needs right now -- and I know that together, we can create the change that will build our country back better. Thank you for being a part of this.
In unity,
Tom
