Friends,
Bill Cassidy is a lot of things.
✅ A Jindal bootlicker
✅ A Trump bootlicker
✅ The author of the “most radical” GOP bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act (no small feat!)
But did you know Sen. Cassidy is also a champion of the school-to-prison pipeline - and he takes that phrase quite literally.
Cassidy proposed “doing away with” three of Louisiana’s HBCUs - Grambling, Southern University New Orleans, and Southern University Shreveport - and turning them into “minimum-security prisons.”
Fight back - pitch in $5 or what you can to help us unseat Bill Cassidy and flip the Senate BLUE >>>
Just when you think Bill Cassidy can’t sink any lower, he finds a way to defy the laws of physics, gravity, and basic human decency. This is the same man who wrote a bill that would have stripped healthcare from millions of Americans and eliminated protections for pre-existing conditions. There truly is no bottom.
Bill Cassidy doesn’t care that Louisiana’s six HBCUs create $923 million in total economic impact, 8,454 jobs, and $9.4 billion in lifetime earnings for graduates. He wanted to get rid of half of them, and claimed that Louisiana did not “require” them.
Louisiana incarcerates a higher rate of its population than most developed countries - including Cuba, Russia, and Saudi Arabia. We need more schools and fewer prisons. And more than anything, we desperately need a new senator.
