Lucas, as you know, hardworking Americans have too often been left out of the American dream.
But there’s a solution in front of us: This year’s Congressional Progressive Caucus Budget. This is an alternative federal budget that lays out an economy that works for everyone, with programs and services that strengthen communities and provide infrastructure for the future.

Last year, after enormous grassroots support, the People's Budget received a record number of votes from Members of Congress. This year we want to continue the progress. We need your help in showcasing support so that more Members of Congress vote YES on the People’s Budget, when it’s up for a vote next week.
Add your name to support this truly progressive alternative federal budget.
So much of what we fight for is protected in this alternative budget, and supporting it helps us get closer to the world we want.
It requires the wealthy and big corporations to pay their fair share of taxes, which would pay for job-creating investments in education, infrastructure (including in Flint), and clean energy. It also overhauls student loans and the justice system, and supports voting rights and women’s reproductive health. And more.
Show your support for this visionary budget, and sign on as a citizen co-sponsor. Thank you!
Keep fighting,
