Pass a Comprehensive Coronavirus Deal Now

30 second spot

As the virus continues to wreak havoc across the country, we need billions of dollars in relief to repair the damage to state and local budgets and to pay for child care, personal protective equipment, ventilation systems and other guardrails to safely reopen schools and colleges. But Senators left town last week without any agreement on fresh stimulus, months after the House of Representatives passed a comprehensive $3 trillion relief package, leaving the president to sign a series of inadequate and probably illegal executive orders.

The AFT urges Congress to pass a comprehensive coronavirus deal now rather than holding down McConnell’s “pause button” while America suffers irreparable damage.
