What does the Republican Budget CUT ?

 

What does the Republican-led Congress’s 10-year budget propose to do? It would harm the most vulnerable, including:

  • Cut Medicaid by $880 billion, which will result in 36 million poor people losing their healthcare coverage and the closure of more rural medical facilities
  • Cut food stamps (SNAP) by $230 billion, which could impact over 40 million hungry families

It would also protect the rich and harm people here and abroad, including:

  • Give $4.5 trillion in tax cuts to billionaires, and require the poorest 20 percent of Americans to pay more in taxes
  • Provide hundreds of billions of dollars for increased militarization of our communities, deportations of our immigrant neighbors and war abroad

We need to reach all of our federal officials—not just to stop the cuts but to demand an expanded social safety net that lifts from the bottom and allows all of us to thrive, not struggle to survive.
