Democratic leadership in the Senate and House has committed to delivering a robust investment in human infrastructure through the Build Back Better bill by the holidays. Join us as we call on the Senate to reject the Scrooge mentality and Bring it Home for the Holidays by passing Build Back Better with NO MORE COMPROMISES.
We will gather at the circle outside Union Station for a short kick-off program, march towards Taft Memorial Park, and close out with a brief rally at Taft Memorial Park.
As we enter the season of giving, we are reminded of the sacrifices working people have made and continue to make throughout this pandemic. Republicans have already secured their place as the Scrooges of this pandemic holiday season and have forced compromises to the Build Back Better package in the House that do not reflect the full investment that working people deserve.
We will not stop fighting until ALL of our people can work, live, and care for their families with the dignity, respect, and safety they deserve without fear of deportation, eviction, inadequate wages, health care, or a burning planet. Our people deserve:
Good care jobs
Access to child care and universal pre-K
Paid family leave
Citizenship
Green infrastructure
Healthcare for all
Affordable housing
