As Washington looks ahead to the first 100 Days of the Biden Administration, I’d like to invite you to join AFP as we prioritize reforms to protect public health and save lives, get our economy going again and save livelihoods, and help our country recover stronger.
This means working with Congress and the administration to put their focus where it should be — ending the pandemic and helping our economy recover.
Make no mistake: this also means pushing back hard against, and providing better alternatives to, dangerous policies that will halt our recovery – especially the $1.9 trillion for spending largely unrelated to COVID-19 already offered by the president.
For too long, lawmakers have focused on the wrong things. It’s time to put people over politics.
We’ve made it easy to contact your lawmakers to tell them to put people over politics and save lives and livelihoods by working together toward policy solutions that could get us out of this pandemic and recover stronger.
