[1]U.S. Senator Chris Murphy
Republicans are going to try to cut Medicaid to pay for their tax cut for billionaires, and they are lying to you about it. Their vote this week proves it.
The ones who dare even address it say this is not true. But let me be clear: Their budget bill requires the House Energy and Commerce Committee to find $880 billion in spending cuts.
It’s just basic math here. The only budget item under their purview that comes close to achieving that is Medicare or Medicaid. Trump says Medicare is off the table, so there it is. Medicaid — the program that provides health insurance for 24% of Americans — will have to be slashed to fund their $880 billion giveaway to corporations and the ultra-wealthy. Chris led a rally calling out this unprecedented transfer of wealth. It’s an important message, so please watch and share it:

Chris Murphy's Tweet:
24% of Americans get their health insurance from Medicaid. Senoirs. Working families. Millionis of kids. Republicans voted tonight to burn Medicaid to the ground. And for what? To fund a giant tax cut for their billoinaire friends. A moral abomination.
Thank you for being side by side with Chris in this fight. We cannot afford to be silent as Trump and Musk try to seize our government and steal your money to enrich themselves.
