Team – We are still in the middle of a global pandemic. All but three states are seeing an increase in infections. Europe is starting to go back into a shutdown.

Donald Trump himself has tested positive for COVID-19. It is clear that this virus is far from over. It is clear that we need more robust testing. We still have a long way to go to fully recover from COVID-19 as a nation.

That’s why the House passed the Heroes Act 2.0.

This bill includes another round of stimulus checks delivered directly to the American people. It would restore the $600 in extra weekly unemployment benefits that expired in July. It would boost education funding, child care programs, and help tackle food insecurity.

It addresses both the devastating public health crisis that continues to take American lives every day AND the economic crisis that is impacting communities in every corner of the nation.

We cannot ignore these crises. Americans need relief NOW. Sign on to demand the Senate pass the Heroes Act 2.0 immediately.

House Democrats have now passed COVID-19 relief TWICE in 5 months – while Mitch McConnell and his Senate Majority stand by silently and refuse to act.

But he is finding time to rush through Trump’s Supreme Court justice nominee with less than one month until Election Day!

While Mitch McConnell plays his role of Trump lackey, the House stepped up to provide badly needed relief directly to the American people. Now the Senate should do its job and pass this updated Heroes Act.

Sign on if you agree the Senate should take immediate action and prioritize urgent COVID-19 relief.

Thanks for speaking up,

– Team Cicilline
