Friend -
[ [link removed] ]We need you. Can you help deliver stories from moms to members of
Congress? They need to hear from us.
Our voices are powerful! And when we join them together in unison—we can
create a wave of support for Medicaid, SNAP, and Public Education!
Already, over a thousand MomsRising volunteers across the country have
signed up to deliver a storybook to their local U.S. Representative’s
office during the upcoming Congressional recess. (See more info below.)
Will you join them?
[ [link removed] ]**Sign up to drop off a storybook to your local U.S. Representative’s
office during the April Congressional Recess, April 14th - 25th!
What’s happening? From April 14th - 25th, members of Congress will be on
recess and back in their home states, so it’s the perfect time to visit
their local office! We’ve compiled a storybook full of stories from moms,
dads, and caregivers about the need for lower costs for families and small
businesses—and when you sign up, we’ll snail mail it to you to deliver to
the office of your local Congressperson. AND we’ll also send you easy
instructions, including a great way to find the nearest Congressional
office for your storybook drop-off.
[ [link removed] ]This is an all-hands-on-deck moment and we need you to SIGN UP NOW so
that we can get you the storybook in time for the April recess! (Deadline
is March 25th)
Thanks for all you do.

Dear Friend,
This is an all-hands-on-deck moment!!! The headlines are bleak and members
of Congress need to hear from us again and again. (Thank you in advance!!)
We’ve all been speaking out by the thousands because we know that the
long-term impact of the budget cuts being proposed (including potentially
cutting healthcare for more than 72 million people!!) by President Trump
and Republicans in Congress will be devastating to hard-working families
like yours, ours, and folks all across America—Thank you!
Now, we need you to show up—literally!

- 25th!
* Doing a drop-off is easier than it might seem at first: When you sign
up, we’ll snail mail you a book of MomsRising member stories for you
to deliver to the office of your local Congressperson. And we’ll also
send you easy instructions, including a great way to find the nearest
Congressional office for your storybook drop-off.
Why right now? This is a national emergency! Your U.S. Representative
needs to know that their constituents are outraged that President Trump
and Congressional leaders are considering a proposal that will give $4.5
trillion in tax cuts to the super rich and mega-corporations—and pay for
them by making massive cuts to programs like Medicaid and also by raising
taxes on the tens of millions of Americans who get their health care from
the Affordable Care Act. In addition, the proposal also plans to slash
funding for food stamps (SNAP), K-12 education, and other vital programs
for families, small businesses, and our economy. [1]
These cuts will not only hurt families, they will also hurt the economy!
Working families, small businesses, and family farmers are the engines
that drive our economy. When every day families have the opportunities and
tools to succeed—like good jobs along with child care and Head Start;
elder care through Medicaid and Medicare; access to secure and affordable
healthcare through Medicaid, CHIP, and the ACA; and food security through
SNAP—people can take care of their families, go to work, support local
businesses, and contribute to their communities. That grows the economy
for all of us!
[ [link removed] ]*Are you able to drop by your U.S. Representative’s local office in
District of Columbia to deliver our collection of personal stories from moms
and dads around the country to educate leaders about why Medicaid, SNAP,
Public Education, and Child Care are critical for families? Sign up now!
When you sign up, we'll send you the storybook along with everything you
need to make a powerful impact by delivering it in-person to your U.S.
Representative’s office. Sharing stories from moms, dads, and caregivers
across the country can help them understand what’s at stake for America’s
families. Lawmakers thrive on contact from their constituents to gauge
what people in their districts truly care about, which is why dropping by
in-person will make a strong impression. This is a critical time for your
Representative to hear from you as they work to finalize our Nation’s
budget!
Our message is clear—instead of spending more money on tax cuts for
billionaires and wealthy corporations, the President and Congress should
focus on keeping their promises to voters: Lower costs for everyday
people, invest in workers and families, and make the tax code, small
businesses, and the economy work better for all of us!
[ [link removed] ]Please sign up to deliver our storybook to help bring the voices of
parents from across the country straight to your local U.S.
Representative’s office.
The fight ahead of us is a major one! The Republicans are in control of
both chambers of Congress and the White House. But we know we can break
through to them and force them to change their plan if we all speak out
and let them know that people in every congressional district across the
country are sickened and angered by their misplaced priorities.
The more people who speak out, the bigger our impact. Please take a moment
to share our [ [link removed] ]action link with your friends and family.
Together we are a powerful voice for families.
- Felicia, Elyssa, Donna, Kristin and the whole MomsRising / MamásConPoder
