John,

Donald Trump has proposed an austerity budget that slashes trillions of dollars of critical services for working families to pay for his tax scam for the rich and corporations. And now, through his latest budget proposal, he’s doubling down on his tax giveaway, growing it from $1.9 trillion to a proposed $3.1 trillion―mostly for the richest among us.

Americans for Tax Fairness is fighting back against Donald Trump’s dangerous budget, which would cut billions in food assistance for low-income families, billions in student loan assistance, billions from Social Security disability programs, and $1 trillion from Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act.

Read Frank’s email below and then pitch in $5 or more to fight Trump’s war on seniors and working families.

Together, it’s up to us to demand―and win―an economy and a tax system that works for everyone, not just the wealthy few.

Thank you,

John,

For the fourth year in a row, Donald Trump’s budget will take from working families in order to give to the wealthy.

Trump’s latest budget proposes the following:

$1 trillion in cuts to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act

$180 billion in cuts to food and nutrition assistance and $1.7 billion in cuts to school meals for low-income children

$170 billion in cuts to student loan programs

$75 billion in cuts to Social Security disability programs

And more including cuts to the EPA and housing for low-income families! [1]

Trump’s budget doubles down on tax cuts for the rich while slashing services for the rest of us.

Americans for Tax Fairness is fighting back! Chip in $5 or more today to fight Trump’s war on seniors and working families.

Trump proposes to extend his tax cuts for individuals that mostly benefit the wealthy, currently set to expire in 2025. In his proposed second round of tax cuts, the richest 1% of households will get a tax break of about $24,000 a year compared to just $460 for the bottom 60%. This will boost the cost of his tax giveaway from $1.9 trillion over 10 years (2018-2027) to $3.1 trillion over 13 years (2018-2030)! [1]

To pay for all of these tax breaks, Trump has proposed $4.4 trillion in cuts to services that seniors and working families depend on: Medicaid, Social Security disability benefits, nutrition assistance, education, environmental protection, disease prevention, affordable housing and more.

Donate today to fight back against Donald Trump’s war on seniors and working families.

Together, we’re rallying the American people and our champions in Congress to fight back against Donald Trump’s dangerous policies that put the profits of the 1% above critical services for those who need them most.

Thank you,

Frank Clemente
Executive Director
