The House is voting on a Trump-approved budget at 6 PM EST TODAY that has $2 trillion in spending cuts over the next decade that will directly and negatively impact Black communities.
This can't wait, John. We’re going to keep this short because we’re quickly running out of time.
Trump and his far-right fascist bullies in the House are trying to muscle in a budget that is a direct attack on Black communities. If this budget passes the results will be disastrous.
The budget cuts include cuts to Medicaid, $900 billion in energy-related spending, $230 billion to food-stamp programs, and more.
One analysis suggests as many as 16 million Americans could fall off Medicaid programs and 11 million could lose health coverage.
They are trying to rip healthcare from millions, targeting Black, low-income, and disabled communities to bankroll the wealthy. This isn’t about a budget, this is a calculated attack. They know exactly who will suffer.
We must act now. Contact your House Representative now and tell them to vote NO at 6 PM EST TONIGHT!!
— Black Lives Matter
Our grassroots movement is pushing for Black liberation every single day. We are striving to create a world where Black people do so much more than just survive. It’s time we thrive.
As an organization one of our biggest hurdles is consistency.
A recurring contribution of anything you can afford goes a long way as we plan for the months, years, and even decades ahead. This is the most effective way for small-dollar donors (like you) to power our Black liberation work.
Will you make a recurring contribution of $5 or more today so that we can keep building momentum for our movement?
