Thank PA Delegation for Votes on Families First Coronavirus Response Act

From the Coalition on Human Needs (http://www.chn.org):

Thanks to your hard work, the U.S. Senate passed the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, which will provide immediate paid sick leave and paid family leave to millions of people, expanded unemployment insurance, vital nutrition aid, more Medicaid funds for states, and free COVID-19 testing.

This bill now goes to the president’s desk for his signature.

We know that this bill is just a first step toward supporting U.S. families through this national (and international) emergency. Passing legislation like this is essential to providing resources to U.S. families and building momentum to address the full ramifications of this public health emergency.

Can you write to your members of Congress right now and thank them for passing this critical legislation at https://actionnetwork.org/letters/write-to-your-members-of-congress-thanking-them-for-their-leadership-on-the-covid-19-response? We’ll need their continued support as we prepare for the next round of legislation, which must include direct payments to families and individuals amongst other critical services.

NOTE: All members of the Pennsylvania delegation supported this bill.

Thank you for all that you do. These are unprecedented times. And we will get through this, together.
