Make a Call to Fight Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill!
|
|
Congress is advancing a budget bill that would take food and healthcare away from millions, all in the name of expanding tax cuts for large corporations and the country’s wealthiest. Last month, House Republicans passed this Big, Ugly Bill, but it must pass both the House and Senate before Trump can sign it into law. We now have a short window of opportunity to block some of the bill’s worst cuts from making it into the final version. 📞 Call your Senators today at 866-835-0995 and urge them to vote NO on Trump’s dangerous budget bill. Looking to increase your impact? RSVP to join us at our upcoming phonebank this Tuesday, July 1st (3–4:30 pm ET). We’ll be calling people in high-priority districts where we think the legislators can be pressured to make the right choice! No experience necessary!

Calling for NO KINGS!In June, the Food & Water Watch Iowa team led the “No Kings!” protest in Des Moines, Iowa, gathering more than 8,000 Iowans to oppose Trump and his billionaire friends. While Trump pushes tax breaks for the rich, he’s also gutting farm programs, food assistance, and rural clean water funding that Iowans rely on. Our organizers are on the frontlines of this fight, calling on leaders like Reps. Zach Nunn and Mariannette Miller-Meeks to stand up for Iowans and reject Trump’s agenda.
