Top Actions of the Past Week: Friday, February 09, 2024
USE YOUR VOICE! Help celebrate Immigrant Caregivers!
National Caregivers Day is just days away! And this February 16th we’re going to lift up immigrant caregivers and remind everyone that immigrants are critical to our families, our communities, and the economy!
Why now? We’re hearing a lot of anti-immigrant rhetoric and cruel anti-immigrant measures being proposed in Congress. It’s time to speak up for the fair treatment of immigrants in our families, workplaces, and communities.
WRITE a letter to the editor about the critical work of immigrant caregivers!
Tell your Senators: Pass the expanded CTC NOW!
Exciting news! The U.S. House of Representatives passed a temporary expansion of the Child Tax Credit last week in an overwhelmingly bipartisan vote and now we need the U.S. Senate to take action to get this across the finish line.
Show your support for immigrant caregivers!
Immigrants are our nation’s strength. And as National Caregivers Day approaches on February 16th, we want to use this opportunity to make sure members of Congress know how critical immigrant caregivers are in our communities! SIGN ON and Tell Congress to support immigrant caregivers, and their communities, with permanent protections!
SIGN ON: Help us protect immigrant caregivers across the country!
Send a letter to your local paper supporting the Child Tax Credit!
Help us keep the pressure up on your U.S. Senators! Send a Letter to the Editor to your local paper calling on the U.S. Senate to pass the bipartisan expansion of the Child Tax Credit now! (It’s really easy–just click here and use our cool Letter to the Editor tool to submit your letter)
Why do letters to the editor matter so much right now? It’s a high profile way to put pressure on your U.S. Senators to vote “yes” on the bipartisan Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024 and temporarily expand the Child Tax Credit right now. Senators and their staff monitor what is being said in their local papers. By submitting a letter you are helping us raise the profile on this very important issue and ringing the alarm bells that we expect Congress to pass this bill as soon as possible.
