John,
You’ve heard of the $1.9 trillion Trump-GOP tax scam that mostly went to the rich and corporations a few years back. Well, it looks like Republicans were only getting started.
The Republican Study Committee―a rabid caucus of three-quarters of House Republicans―is out with their 2022 budget, and it’s ugly.
Not only does this congressional Republican budget propose to cut $14 trillion in critical services including Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid; it adds another $1.9 trillion tax cut that mostly benefits corporations and the wealthy.[1]
We’re fighting back against a dangerous Republican budget while fighting for a future that makes the rich and corporations pay their fair share. Donate today to stop the GOP budget in its tracks.
The House Republican budget would:[2][3]
-
Enact new corporate tax cuts and extend the Trump-GOP tax cuts that mostly benefited the richest 1%;
-
Raise the eligibility age for Medicare by at least two years to 67
-
Cut Social Security benefits, especially for people with disabilities;
-
End health care guarantees through Medicaid and the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP);
-
Cut SNAP food stamp benefits for low-income kids and families, and more!
We have a once-in-a-generation chance to invest in our future. This budget is an assault on all that we’re fighting for.
