Dear John,
We are nine days away from a government shutdown because House Republicans cannot govern. Instead of moving forward with an already agreed–upon budget, an extreme faction of MAGA Republicans is stalling the process with nonsensical proposals.
- They are bringing back the wall.
In this week’s budget proposal, MAGA Republicans snuck in their extremist border security plan, including bringing back our former President’s plan to build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico – but they can’t even fund it. The same budget proposal cuts the funding they would need to build it from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Nonsense.
- Tax cuts for corporations and the top 1%.
Republicans are working to protect the corporations and executives whose donations fund their campaigns with extreme tax cuts. They’re so extreme that if enacted, the cuts would balloon the deficit, putting the burden on middle-class families.
Nonsense.
- $16 billion cut to disaster relief agencies.
Florida, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Missouri are all Republican-controlled states that have relied on funding from FEMA and other agencies after natural disasters hit. While extreme weather events are only getting more extreme, House Republicans' climate change denialism puts their extreme policies over their own constituents' safety.
Nonsense.
MAGAnomics is a MEGA nightmare.
Democrats have proven time and again that we will get the job done and will always do what it takes to support the American people.
