Here on Our Moral Moment and at Moral Mondays In DC, we’ve been sharing the stories of people who would be directly impacted by the big, ugly bill before Congress. It’s a fusion coalition of people whose lives depend on Medicaid and people who will lose their local hospital if Medicaid gets slashed; teachers who know how much kids in their classes depend on SNAP and working families who rely on Medicaid for their aging parents in nursing homes; churches and communities that have been terrorized by masked ICE agents and can’t imagine how much worse things could get if Congress allocated the funds this bill proposes to hire 10,000 more agents.
It’s a lot. But it still feels distant to so many people.
Which is why I want to introduce you to Ryan Busse. Ryan is many things, including a former candidate for Governor of Montana and a fellow steering committee member at The Save America Movement. You can read more about him here.
I was glad to talk to Ryan today because he has an important point to add about this big, ugly bill: it would directly impact every one of us as co-owners of the largest land trust in the world. Hope you’ll take 20 minutes to learn more and call your Senator today to demand they take a stand and kill this deadly bill.
