July 25 #PeoplesStimulus Petition
On Saturday, July 25 we will hold honking car parades and march to the homes of our members of Congress to deliver our emergency pandemic demands. We will rally outside their homes and share stories of how the pandemic and systemic racism have affected our lives. We will call them outside to commit to the #PeoplesStimulus.
Show that you support our demands for a #PeoplesStimulus, by signing on to our petition. Our weeks of action will culminate with the delivery of all petitions to Congress in Washington D.C. on July 27!
We demand:
1. Defund police and divert funds back to schools and social services
2. Medicare for all
3. Monthly $2,000 cash payments for all
4. Cover payroll to protect small business jobs
5. Suspend rent and mortgage payments
6. Suspend student and credit card loan payments
Our government’s heartless and immoral response to the coronavirus pandemic has devastated the country. The U.S. has more cases and deaths than any other nation on Earth.
The Democrats and Republicans used the pandemic and economic depression to hand Wall Street trillions of dollars in corporate bailouts. Meanwhile working people have been left struggling to afford basic needs like food and housing. Now that Big Business has raided the Treasury and the Fed, Washington is saying that this next stimulus bill in late July will be the last.
We demand that this be the #PeoplesStimulus!
