SOCIAL MEDIA TOOLKIT:
It's Time to Pass the Build Back Better Act
Overview
We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to shape our society and economy for decades to come by passing the Build Back Better Act. For months, this cornerstone of President Biden's climate agenda has been linked with a bipartisan infrastructure bill. Congress understood that the two bills must move together or both wouldn’t have the support needed to pass.
But now attempts are growing to decouple the two -- to push through passage of the smaller bipartisan infrastructure deal as soon as tomorrow while leaving the bold climate and social investments in the Build Back Better Act vulnerable to further cuts or possible failure. That is unacceptable -- we need both. We are calling on Congress to preserve this historic climate and social justice legislation by passing Build Back Better before the bipartisan infrastructure deal.
Join us in raising your voice on social media to say #NoClimateNoDeal!
