It’s extra important for GOP senators to hear from their constituents right now. While Republicans try to gut life-saving programs like Medicaid and SNAP to give billionaires even more tax cuts, tell your senators to reject Trump’s Tax Scam and stand up for the families they were elected to serve. 👇
Tell your Republican Senator(s) You Don’t Want To Pay The Price For Their Billionaire Tax Breaks

I still can't get over the fact that our politicians get $558 per week for meals... WTAF?
While kids get cut off SNAP
2,232 per month, just for meals. I will be mad about this for a long time. They have the nerve to deny low income kids food

Can somebody explain to me why the rule is "if you can't make rent, cut out the streaming apps, lattes, and avocado toasts" but it's never "if you can't afford your workers a living wage, cut out the mega-yachts, rockets, and spaceships."

Remember: Wealth cannot be separated from power.
We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people.
Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

For every millionaire household that would get a tax break from Republicans’ big, ugly bill, 19 Americans would be stripped of their health coverage.
Their priorities couldn’t be clearer.
We must stop this devastating bill.

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead:
House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing
Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year
Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs

Millions of people are worried about paying their rent, feeding their kids or losing vital disability benefits.
If the government cared about people's security, it would reverse cruel cuts, end child poverty and pursue an agenda for peace.
Let's fund welfare, not warfare.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are working behind the scenes to mess with your Social Security.
They’re changing the rules so they can fire workers on the frontlines who help Americans get their checks—and replace them with Trump loyalists.
We’re not letting them get away with it.
