John, on Wednesday the Senate reviewed and delivered remarks on the House GOP Budget proposal. The Democratic Policy and Communications Committee (DPCC), headed by Senators Schumer and Stabenow, issued a devastating report on the potential impact of the House budget cuts, and their direct attacks on the people that need the most help from government programs.
The GOP budget proposal has the potential of: - Eliminating $582 million from opioid epidemic funding - Shrinking access to infant formula by making cuts to WIC programs - estimating up to 1 million infants without access to formula - Cutting funding for border security, risking the loss of $640 million worth of operational technology - Retracting $597 million from Tribal governments and Indigenous People's programs
The GOP says that they are committed to helping American families...so why do they punish them first in their policy proposals? Why do they campaign on strengthening the border and ending the opioid epidemic if their policies would do the opposite?
Chip in today and help us take BACK the House from the GOP and their backward positions - Democrats are working FOR the people!
John, we know that the GOP majority in the House will continue to target families while they make misleading public statements. Be on the lookout for our policy updates and the laws that may impact you and your family. And thank you for joining us in this fight - we are in this together.
