Tell your Senators to support key pieces of the HEROES Act

The coronavirus has wreaked unprecedented havoc on the lives of the American people. Our economy, our schools, our jobs and our way of life have been disrupted.

To survive and recover from this pandemic, safely reopen our schools, and allow people to safely return to work to restore our economy, we have to maintain critical state and local services, such as law enforcement, education and healthcare.

We need your senators to support critical pieces of the House-passed HEROES Act in the next COVID-19 relief bill.

Send a message now urging your senators to fund these essential services that are at the heart of our recovery and our ability to reopen the economy.

Dear Senator,

I'm writing to urge you to support critical pieces of the House-passed HEROES Act in the next COVID-19 relief bill including:

At least $100 billion for public K-12 education and public colleges and universities to safely reopen and account for the unanticipated, increased costs of operating schools in a COVID-19 environment. Reopening schools and colleges while keeping students and staff safe will take more, not fewer, resources, especially as students will return to school with significant academic, social and emotional needs.

$500 billion for state aid and $350 billion for local aid that funds the services that retain our EMTs, public safety officers, teachers and school workers, sanitation workers, home-care providers, and other frontline public service workers who are essential to fighting this pandemic and reopening our economy. They have been there for us, and they are a critical part of our recovery, as well as keeping our communities safe and livable.

$175 billion for the health and safety of our frontline providers and the American people. We need widespread testing, contact tracing, adequate PPE supplies, relief for affected families, and expansion of Medicaid to ensure that vulnerable populations are treated to stop the spread of the virus.

Eighty-four percent of Americans support increased federal aid to protect healthcare, education, safety and other services and to keep frontline workers on the job.

The Senate must act now to fund these essential services that are at the heart of our recovery and our ability to reopen the economy.
