The Left’s socialist agenda carries a massive price tag -- with Congress now moving forward on a $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill. That’s on top of the so-called infrastructure bill (at $1 trillion) along with the proposed budget for next year (a whopping $6 trillion). These bills include new entitlement programs, Green New Deal provisions, and handouts to Big Labor. In fact, all of the Democrats’ pet projects and socialist objectives can be found in these out-of-control spending bills.
We have a short window of time to tell Congress to STOP the reckless spending. Please use our tool here to contact your U.S. representative and voice your opposition to the socialist agenda the Democrats are pushing. **[Please take action this week to let Congress know that this socialist agenda is unacceptable.]([link removed])**

**Contact Congress: Tell Them to Vote NO on Reckless Spending for a Socialist Agenda**
========================================================================================
The U.S. Congress has embarked on the most reckless spending binge our country has ever seen in order to advance a radical socialist agenda. While the American people face historic inflation in the price of food, gas and other basic goods, the socialist Democrats are working to spend trillions of dollars on programs that have nothing to do with improving the lives of everyday Americans.
