After more late-night debates, House Republicans just narrowly passed their cruel and reckless budget bill. I voted NO against this bill just days ago, because it will cause irreparable harm to Washingtonians and Americans nationwide.
This is the largest cut to our social safety net in U.S. history. 17 million people will be kicked off their Medicaid and Affordable Care Act health coverage.
Clean energy programs will be cut, costing millions of good-paying jobs and increasing electricity bills for families everywhere.
Rural hospitals will be shuttered. Planned Parenthood will lose critical federal funding.
Over $3 trillion will be added to the federal debt. All of this to give away tax breaks to billionaires and major corporations. It’s inexcusable.
My Republican colleagues have made their priorities clear, but my fellow Democrats and I won’t stand by while billionaires receive handouts at the expense of working families.
We need a wave of grassroots energy ASAP to prove that we will hold the GOP accountable for this cruel bill by defeating MAGA loyalists and turning Congress blue. If you can, please rush in $10 to help us immediately ramp up our fight. [[link removed]]DONATE NOW » [[link removed]]
