When Donald Trump signed into law his $1.5 trillion tax scam, we knew what was coming next: An all-out assault on our earned benefits.
Today, Donald Trump released his fiscal year 2019 budget, which includes $1.3 trillion in cuts to Medicaid, $554 billion in cuts to Medicare and $10 billion in cuts to Social Security. Not to mention that they’re taking another crack at repealing the Affordable Care Act.
We always knew that Republicans in Washington would use the Trump tax scam as an excuse to turn around and attempt to cut our earned benefits.
This is just another example of Donald Trump saying one thing on the campaign trail and then turning around and letting his right-wing cabinet―including his Budget Director and Tea Party darling Mick Mulvaney―do another. And with Republicans controlling both bodies of Congress, this is going to be an all-out fight for the future of our earned benefits.
It’s up to use to remind Republicans in Washington where the American people stand: Expand, don’t cut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid!
Thank you,
