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
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.
No experience is necessary — we will provide a brief training, a script, and all the tools you need to have great conversations! All you need is a computer, a fully charged phone, and headphones (optional). The phone bank should last approximately two hours.
We hope you can show up and help us stop this bill in its tracks!
In solidarity,
Nurses’ Campaign to Win Medicare for All
