NEW: BUILDING BACK TOGETHER JOINS NEARLY 100 GROUPS TO URGE PASSAGE OF BOTH BUILD BACK BETTER AGENDA AND BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE DEAL
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Building Back Together joined a coalition of nearly 100 groups led by Invest in America and Real Recovery Now!, to urge Congress to pass both the Build Back Better Agenda and Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal this week. Taken together, these plans would grow the economy from the middle out, create millions of good-paying jobs, and make our country more competitive so that the United States is positioned to win the race for the 21st century.
Read the full letter here:
Right now, Congress has the chance to deliver transformational change to working people and families across the country with the Build Back Better Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal.
These plans are a once-in-a-generation investment in our nation’s future that will create millions of good-paying jobs, cut costs for families, and cut taxes for the middle class.
We urgently need both of these plans to make our economy fairer, address the many crises facing American communities, and rebuild the middle class — the backbone of our country.
Now is the time to create generations of prosperity for American families and communities. We urge Congress to swiftly pass the Build Back Better Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal together this week.
