These headlines say it all:



It’s clear that we need to invest in building a robust care infrastructure — for workers, for caregivers, and for care recipients — but Congress is hearing plenty from conservative men ...
... who don’t think we need to invest in caregiving
... who think paid leave can wait another year
... who want to continue dismantling the Affordable Care Act
... who are happy appeasing corporate donors (by privatizing our roads and bridges) while turning a blind eye to the urgent needs of workers.
That’s why Congress needs to hear from you!
Please contact Congress — RIGHT NOW — while our allies are finalizing the details of President Biden's Build Back Better Act.
Everything is on the line!
Urge your representative to keep paid leave in the bill, to ensure it gets adequate funding to make a meaningful difference, and to make damn sure this critical legislation doesn’t simply stall out.
It’s past time to recognize caregiving as an essential part of our American infrastructure. The devaluation of caregiving work is rooted in racism and sexism and disproportionately harms women and workers of color.
The pandemic has clearly demonstrated that every single one of us will need to give care or receive it at some point in our lives, so please speak up today when your voice is needed most.
It only takes a minute to make the call, and together our voice TODAY could be what gets paid leave across the finish line.
Take action: Make sure your voice is heard while final decisions are being made on Capitol Hill today.
Thanks for all that you do!
