This Big, Ugly Bill extends and expands tax cuts for dirty energy corporations and the country’s wealthiest. To help pay for them, funding for healthcare and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) food assistance is on the chopping block. Last month, House Republicans passed the bill and sent a clear message: “Be rich, or go without.” But it must pass both the House and Senate before Trump can sign it into law – which means we have a short window of opportunity to block some of the bill’s worst cuts from making it into the final version. We have to move fast – and we need member support to do it! Become a member for just $10 and TRIPLE your impact. Our advocacy is already making a difference, as thousands of Food & Water Watch supporters have generated more than 28,000 calls and emails to Congress, participated in rallies across the country, met in person with key lawmakers, and more! Our impact is real and powerful. Already, our efforts have helped defeat provisions in the bill that would have attacked nonprofits, cut funding for school lunches, and left communities more vulnerable to dangerous carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and oil pipelines, just to name a few. But this bill still poses a massive threat to our food, water, and climate. We know we can keep up this momentum and win when we have steadfast members like you! We need all hands on deck in the coming weeks as we put everything we have into this fight. Every voice counts — can we count on yours? Start your membership with Food & Water Watch today for a discounted rate of $10, and we’ll TRIPLE your gift!
