2) These men are refusing to raise taxes on the rich so you and your children can have a better life.

Do you have kids? This bill would send $300 to you every month AND help you pay for child care.

3) It would also make preschool and two years of community college tuition free!

Are you or your parents or grandparents on Medicare? This bill would expand Medicare so it would cover eyeglasses, dentures and hearing aids-none of which are currently paid for by Medicare.

What does #ForThePeopleAct HR1 do for American voters?

This will be my hat tip to Rep John Lewis, may you rest in power Sir.

Let's advocate #GoodTrouble and #PassFTPA HR1.

Across 10 titles, this historic legislation would make it easier to vote in federal elections, end congressional gerrymandering, overhaul federal campaign finance laws,
brennancenter.org/our-work/polic…
increase safeguards against foreign interference, strengthen gov ethics rules, & more. Most reforms would be implemented for the Nov 2022 general election, with the exception of some redistricting & public financing changes that would go into effect later.
