The RESULTS National Webinar

October 2020

Welcome!

Our Anti-Oppression Values

RESULTS is a movement of passionate, committed everyday people. Togetherwe use our voices to influence political decisions that will bring an end to poverty.Poverty cannot end as long as oppression exists.

We commit to opposing all forms of oppression, including racism, classism, colonialism, white saviorism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, xenophobia, and religious discrimination.

At RESULTS we pledge to create space for all voices, including those of us who are currently experiencing poverty. We will address oppressive behavior in our interactions, families, communities, work, and world. Our strength is rooted in our diversity of experiences, not in our assumptions.

With unearned privilege comes the responsibility to act so the burden to educate and change doesn’t fall solely on those experiencing oppression. When we miss the mark on our values, we will acknowledge our mistake, seek forgiveness, learn, and work together as a community to pursue equity.

There are no saviors — only partners, advocates, and allies. We agree to help make the RESULTS movement a respectful, inclusive space.

Pending Eviction “Cliff”

CDC national eviction moratorium in place through 2020

But millions are still struggling to make ends meet, and this moratorium won’t pay the rent.“Tenants already owe nearly $25 billion in back rent, which could reach $69.8 billion by the end of the year," according to conservative economist Mark Zandi of Moody’s analytics.

Global Poverty & COVID-19

• Pandemic could reverse decades of progress and push up to 100 million people into extreme poverty(less than $1.90 per day)

• In Africa, the earnings of informal workers declined more than 80 percent in the first month of the pandemic

Child health & COVID-19

Without timely action we risk:

• More than 10,000 additional child deaths per monthduring the first 12 months of the pandemic

• Child wasting increase by 14.3%, affecting an additional 6.7 million children, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa and south Asia

Where things stand now• Congress passed CR until December 11

o Includes $8 billion to replace lost school meals for US children

• House passed HEROES Act 2.0, includes:

o $50 billion for emergency rental assistance through February

o Increased SNAP benefits by 15 percent

o $10b in global assistance; $3.5b each for Gavi & Global Fund

• No bipartisan deal, slim chances for one

o Latest White House proposal includes $60 billion for

rent/mortgage assistance and $15 billion for food assistance

14

What candidates and policymakers need to hear

• There is still tremendous need for relief

• Must address underlying issues, like our housing

crisis, with bold long-term solutions

15

Future legislative opportunities

• Finalizing FY21 Appropriations (House $10 billion

SFOPS emergency title) when CR expires in December

• Larger COVID-19 relief package in late 2020 or early

2021

• Potential for large scale tax legislation in first half of

2021
