 is a 3rd Reconstruction?\n\nhttps://www.3rdreconstruction.org/\n\nIt’s 
 Time to Fully Address Poverty and Low Wages from the Bottom Up!\n\nDrawing 
 on the transformational history of the First Reconstruction following the 
 Civil War and the Second Reconstruction of the civil rights struggles of 
 the 20th century, the \nThird Reconstruction is a revival of our 
 constitutional commitment to establish justice, \nprovide for the general 
 welfare, end decades of austerity, and recognize that policies that center 
 the 140 million are also good economic policies that can heal and transform 
 the nation.\n\nEmerging from the pain and organizing power of the 140 
 million people living in poverty or with low wages in this nation, the 
 congressional resolution for a Third Reconstruction reflects an omnibus 
 vision for a fundamental restructuring of society that lifts from the 
 bottom. \nThe non-partisan resolution comes as a response to years of 
 movement-building to create the collective resolve necessary to implement 
 real and transformational legislative action.\n\nThis resolution recognizes 
 that in order to build a true Third Reconstruction we must simultaneously 
 deal with the interlocking injustices of systemic racism, poverty, 
 ecological devastation and the denial of health care, militarism and the 
 distorted moral narrative of religious nationalism that blames the poor 
 instead of the systems that cause poverty.\n\nCONGRESS LINK to H.Res. 438: 
 Third Reconstruction: Fully addressing poverty and low wages from the 
 bottom 
 up.\n\nhttps://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-resolution/438\n_______________________________________________________________\n\nCALL 
 TO ACTION: END THE FILIBUSTER\n\nThe end to poverty and low wages through a 
 3rd Reconstruction cannot be achieved without an end to the 
 filibuster.\n\nThe PPC released a letter to US senators demanding an end to 
 the filibuster rule.\n\nLETTER STATES: “The filibuster has been used to 
 block civil rights, labor rights, voting rights, living wages, healthcare 
 access, especially for poor and low-wealth Black, Brown, White, Asian and 
 Indigenous people. The filibuster continues to facilitate idolatrous policy 
 platforms about who deserves to thrive and who does not.”\n\nCalifornians 
 can, with a few clicks, send the letter directly to Senators Padilla and 
 Feinstein.\n\nJoin in emailing this letter to our senators to demand an end 
 to the filibuster (easy 
 peasy!):\nhttps://actionnetwork.org/letters/call-to-conscience-dont-filibuster-democracy\n\nOR 
 \n\nEmail or call them directly to tell them end the filibuster:\n\nSenator
