On the recordFebruary 26, 2021
The American Rescue Plan is bold action needed to meet this defining moment. Seventy-six percent of Americans are rooting for its passage: direct payments to Americans; help for teachers and students, to return both of them to the classroom; help for neighborhood restaurants to reopen and to recover; help for local and State governments; and billions for vaccine making and distribution. Wall Street or Main Street has always been a false choice. This is about the neighborhood streets and the homes where real families live and struggle every day to give their kids a fighting chance. Mr. Speaker, give their kids a fighting chance. Let the recovery begin.
