Friend, "We have a moral obligation to do something. We are the party that stands for the working poor." That's what Ro said when he stressed the importance of getting COVID-19 relief to the people. There are over 50,000 new COVID-19 cases and hundreds of deaths per day, job growth is slowing down, and 23 million Americans didn't have enough to eat last week. Ro has been fighting in the House to get a relief deal passed, working with his fellow representatives across the table to get the most amount of aid possible to the people. Ro knows we need a relief deal now — because families can't keep waiting. If you agree, sign on as a grassroots co-sponsor for an expedited COVID-19 stimulus package. House Democrats have passed two relief checks, enhanced unemployment, rental assistance, help for small businesses, and funding for schools. Ro supported these bills along with The Emergency Money for the People Act. Introduced with Rep. Tim Ryan, the bill would have given $2,000 on an ongoing monthly basis to every American over the age of 16 through the pandemic. But, Mitch McConnell has blocked these bills for months. It's this type of out-of-touch leadership that we need to fight against with our people-powered movement. Help us show Republicans that the people can't afford to keep waiting for aid. Sign on right now to become a grassroots co-sponsor for an expedited COVID-19 stimulus package. In solidarity, Team Ro |
