Senator Sinema: Will you deliver critical economic relief for millions of struggling Arizonans?
We urgently need Congress to pass a big, bold COVID relief bill that includes survival checks, a $15 minimum wage, expanded unemployment insurance, and other key lifesaving policies. We can’t afford to let Sen. Sinema—or any other member of Congress—water down this bill. The stakes are too high.
Why is this important?
COVID-19 has devastated Arizonans. Arizona's jobless rate is 7.5%—higher than the national average. 239,000 Arizonans fell behind on rent as of February 2021. Over 1 in 3 have trouble covering basic household expenses. Nearly 700,000 are struggling to keep food on the table.
We just passed a devastating milestone as a country: 500,000 Americans dead from COVID. Millions more have experienced deep and lasting health effects from getting the infection. Their lives will never be the same. And we’re still feeling the economic consequences of COVID, as we remain on the brink of massive unemployment and eviction crises.
The pandemic is far from over. The economic crisis is ongoing. Sen. Sinema must join the vast majority of Democrats—and Americans overall—who are fully supportive of this COVID relief package.
