“Mitch better have my money.” - America $2,000

 

Booker for the People


The $600 checks in the latest stimulus compromise are a slap in the face. We need at least $2,000 — and frankly the checks should be retroactive and monthly.

Last night, Donald Trump admitted it. He said he’d sign a bill with $2,000 checks. So now we have Trump, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer all saying, “Yes, let’s do $2,000 checks.”

Who’s standing in the way? Mitch McConnell.

We can amend the bill this week and get $2,000 checks. We just have to amp up the pressure on Mitch, and show him the American people aren’t going to put up with $600. So we’re joining up with AOC, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib, Jamaal Bowman, Cori Bush, Justice Dems and more to call on Congress to amend the stimulus bill to include $2,000 checks.

Can you sign your name to our massive petition to Congress? Tell them to pass the amendment increasing the checks from $600 to $2,000 immediately?


Mitch has been resisting any sort of real help for struggling families for months. Now Donald Trump has put him in an impossible position. He’s the only one standing between us and our $2,000 checks.

Millions of Americans are saying, “Mitch better have my money.”

Thanks for taking action today,

CHARLES BOOKER: Student loan debt is a racial justice issue

 

Booker for the People

Today, student debt is a $1.7 trillion crisis. Nearly 45 million Americans — that’s one in every five — carry student debt. This burden exacerbates economic inequality, prevents wealth building, and stifles the dreams of millions of Americans.

Student debt cancellation would not only greatly contribute to an equitable economic recovery from COVID-19, but it would jumpstart our economy and help close the racial wealth gap.

That’s why Booker for the People has joined Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley and others in calling on President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris to cancel student loan debt. Will you join us by adding your name today?

Roughly one-sixth of the U.S. population over the age of 18 currently carry a federal student loan. Removing this burden would be an immediate and great stimulant for our economy.

Cancelling student debt is also a racial justice issue. Black borrowers on average owe more in student loan debt than white borrowers — holding them back from building intergenerational wealth and exacerbating the existing racial wealth gap.

Add your name today to urge President-elect Joe Biden to prioritize the economic stability of everyday Americans by cancelling student loan debt.

Thank you for taking action today,

Charles
