Although every household in America will benefit from the Inflation Reduction Act, few people know about it—and we’re working to change that. By celebrating the concrete improvements in our communities as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act, ‘Powering Progress’ will not only increase the number of people who support an active and inclusive government, but also combat the far-right’s bad faith attempts to seed divide-and-conquer frames about who benefits from government action.

We urge President Biden to continue the current pause on student loan payments implemented during the pandemic, move quickly to identify another legal path to administer student debt relief, and cancel the debt as soon as possible before the Supreme Court has the chance to attack borrowers again. And, most importantly, we urge Congress to acknowledge the Court as the threat it is, conduct rigorous oversight, and move with urgency to support and pass the Judiciary Act, and add four seats to the bench.
If Kevin McCarthy wants this bill to pass, it’s on him to prove that he has the promised Republican votes. If progressive votes are needed to pass this bill, then progressives will be ready to quickly land legislative improvements to earn them. That’s how governing works.
Photos of Indivisibles across the country at rallies, protests, banner-drops, honk-and-waves, teach-ins, and more to ramp up pressure on key Republicans to stop the MAGA default crisis and demanding that they stop threatening veterans, seniors, children, and working families.
