DESCRIPTION:Moral Monday Rally: Healthcare and Covid Relief with $15/hr Now!\n\nJoin 
 the Poor People's Campaign and union partners for a Moral Monday protest 
 focused on health care, COVID relief and a $15 minimum wage with a safe, 
 with in-person actions in San Francisco and a digital rally online as we 
 march on senate offices across the United States.\n\nMonday Feb 22, 2021 @ 
 12 pm PT\n\nSAN FRANCISCO: Bay Area members looking to join a COVID-safe, 
 in person speakout can join the CA Poor People's Campaign at sidewalk 
 outside office of Sen. Dianne Feinstein, \n1 Post Street, San Francisco, CA 
 94104;  email contact: madison@poorpeoplescampaign.org\n\nSAFETY: Masks & 
 Social Distancing Required at All Times \n\nONLINE: For the digital rally, 
 go to https://www.poorpeoplescampaign.org/livestream/\n\n\nWe're fighting 
 for a $15/hour minimum wage, the elimination of the subminimum wage for 
 tipped workers, union rights for all, and full and just COVID relief. 
 \n\nAs we have seen over the past 11 months, these issues are deeply 
 connected. The crisis of poverty and low wages is directly connected to the 
 injustices in our healthcare system. We know that 87 million people were 
 uninsured or underinsured before the pandemic and millions have lost their 
 healthcare in the worst public health crisis in a century. \n\nIn the 
 richest nation in history, there is no excuse for denying the human rights 
 of living wages, an adequate standard of living; and quality 
 healthcare!\n\nWe’ll go live to the state offices of US Senators across 
 the nation to hear directly from poor and low-income people and moral 
 leaders about the needed $15/hour for all workers, immediate Medicaid 
 expansion in every state, expanded funding for state budgets, ramping up 
 vaccinations while tracking race and class to ensure equity in 
 distribution, supporting public schools for safe reopening and 
 more.\n______________________________________________________________\n\n14 
 Priorities for the First 100 Days: The PPC Sends New Demands to 
 Washington\n\nhttps://www.poorpeoplescampaign.org/resource/policy-and-legislative-priorities/\n\nOn 
 behalf of the 140 million poor and low-income people in the country, the 
 Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival – and our 45 
 state coordinating committees, thousands of religious leaders, scholars, 
 economists, advocates and hundreds of supporting organizations – insists 
 that the following policies from the Poor People’s Jubilee Platform take 
 precedence during the first 50-100 days of the new administration and 117th 
 Congress.\n\nThe 14 policy priorities include:\n\n--Enact comprehensive and 
 just COVID-19 relief that provides free testing, treatment, vaccines and 
 direct payments to the poor\n--Guarantee quality health care for all, 
 regardless of any pre-existing conditions\n--Raise the minimum wage to $15/ 
 hour immediately\n--Update the poverty measure\n--Guarantee quality housing 
 for all\n--Enact a federal jobs program to build up investments, 
 infrastructure, public institutions, climate resilience, energy efficiency 
 and socially beneficial industries and jobs in poor and low-income 
 communities\n--Protect and expand voting rights and civil 
 rights\n--Guarantee safe, quality and equitable public education, with 
 supports for protection against re-segregation\n--Comprehensive and just 
 immigration reform\n--Ensure all of the rights of indigenous 
 peoples\n--Enact fair taxes and targeted tax credits\n--Use the power of 
 executive orders\n--Redirect the bloated Pentagon Budget towards these 
 priorities as matters of national security\n--Work with the PPC to 
 establish a permanent Presidential Council to advocate for this bold 
 agenda\n___________________________________________________________\n\nSAFETY
