John,
Billionaire Elon Musk has been tasked with cutting trillions of dollars in public services through the new “Department of Government Efficiency”. In response, we’ve already sent nearly 50,000 messages to Congress demanding they reject Medicaid cuts that are meant to pay for more tax cuts for the rich.1 But Medicaid isn’t the only program that’s under attack.
Musk and his fellow billionaire Vivek Ramaswamy could seek to cut nutrition programs such as SNAP, veterans’ health care, workforce training, housing assistance, and more.2 They’re looking to cut trillions of dollars to pay for a tax scam that is estimated to add $4.6 trillion to the national debt.3
These programs are critical to the lives of millions of vulnerable people and communities and are not just numbers in a spreadsheet. Send a message to your members of Congress right now demanding they reject cuts to critical services to pay for more tax cuts for the rich.
SIGN & SEND
While Elon Musk has admitted that his proposed cuts will cause “temporary hardship” for millions of Americans, you can bet that he won’t be the one feeling the pain.4 Instead, he and his billion-dollar businesses will continue to reap the rewards of a rigged tax system meant to benefit the wealthy and corporations at the expense of everyday people.
Need help affording health insurance for yourself and your kids? Sorry, Elon needs his tax cuts.
Put on a waiting list for nutrition assistance? Sorry, Elon needs his tax cuts.
What about cutting the health care of 9 million veterans? You got it; Elon needs his tax cuts.
This will be one of the biggest legislative fights of 2025: demanding Congress put people and communities first, not tax cuts for millionaires, billionaires, and corporations.

Thank you for taking action to hold Congress and the incoming administration accountable to the American people.
