FOR PLANNING PURPOSES
October 12, 2021
Contact: Kenny Palmer | press@indivisible.org
Background: We hope you’ll join us for a #TimeToDeliver livestream with the Congressional Progressive Caucus, progressive champions in the House and Senate, and more than 28 progressive organizations fighting for an inclusive recovery. We will be discussing how progressives will influence the ongoing negotiations, continue strengthening bicameral support for progressive priorities and the two-track strategy, build and sustain outside support, and deliver on the full Build Back Better Agenda. We’re going to talk about what’s at stake, the fight ahead, and what we need you to do to have progressives’ backs to pass reconciliation. Trust us, you’re not going to want to miss it.
“It is well past time for Congress to deliver and pass an inclusive reconciliation bill through both the House and Senate and send it to the President's desk,” said Indivisible Co-Executive Director Leah Greenberg. “Progressives will not allow conservative Democrats to gamble away the policies that will expand health care coverage and lower prescription drug prices, build a pathway to citizenship and include immigrants in recovery provisions, invest in clean energy and climate action, and meet needs like child care, paid leave, and affordable housing.”
WHAT: #TimeToDeliver Town Hall Live Stream Coalition, unbranded livestream in support of Build Back Better using the hashtag #TimeToDeliver.
WHO: Progressive Caucus Chair Rep. Pramila Jayapal, Senate Budget Committee Chairman Senator Bernie Sanders, Senator Ed Markey, Rep. Ayanna Pressley, Rep. Barbara Lee, Rep. Jimmy Gomez. Indivisible's Co-Executive Director Leah Greenberg, United We Dream’s Executive Director Greisa Martínez Rosas, Working Families Party’s National Director Maurice Mitchell, Sierra Club’s President Ramón Cruz, and SEIU’s International President Mary Kay Henry
