Pass the Biden-Harris Administration’s American Rescue Plan as is!

I urge you to support the Biden-Harris administration’s 1.9 trillion dollar package, the American Rescue Plan, aimed at economic aid for struggling families, relief for small businesses, and a national vaccination program to increase testing and vaccine distribution. The American Rescue Plan would: • provide $1,400 in direct payments to most Americans, • increase the federal per-week unemployment benefit to $400 until September 31st, • increase the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour, • extend the eviction and foreclosure moratoriums until September 31st, • increase the Child Tax Credit to $3,000 per child ($3,600 for children under 6), which would reduce child poverty by at least 50%, • give $170 billion for K-12 schools and institutions of higher education, • provide $350 billion in state and local government aid, • add an additional $50 billion toward Covid-19 testing, and • provide $20 billion toward a national vaccination program. The package is now in your hands. As your constituent I ask you to swiftly pass the administration's rescue plan so America can begin its long road to full recovery.
