[1]NNU - Medicare for All!
Senate leadership is trying to rush to vote on Donald Trump’s “Big
Beautiful Bill” this week to ensure it reaches the President’s desk for
signature by July 4th. If they succeed, it will mean nearly $1 TRILLION in
cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, and other health care programs that tens of
millions of people rely on.
But new polling confirms what we already knew — that the majority of
Americans are on our side and oppose this massive tax giveaway for the
wealthiest few at the expense of our care.^1
[ [link removed] ]NBC News: Polls show Trump’s big bill is unpopular as Republicans stare
down their deadline for passage. GOP leaders hope to begin votes on the
legislation this week in the Senate, where they can afford only three
defections.
Multiple polls prove that slashing Medicaid and Medicare is unpopular,
with one study by KFF finding that 64 percent of all survey respondents
across political parties have an unfavorable view of this budget bill.^2
That number is larger amongst Democrats (85 percent) and Independents (71
percent).
Across the political spectrum, most people agree that cutting critical
health care programs to pay for tax breaks for millionaires and
billionaires is wrong. Now, we need to make our voices heard loud and
clear one last time before it’s too late.
We’re hosting one more Fund Care Not Billionaires virtual phone bank to
call voters who live in Maine, asking them to call Senator Susan Collins
and urge her to reject this bill.
