While You Were Sleeping… Republicans cut $2 Trillion from Healthcare

While we were asleep, Republicans slashed $2 TRILLION in services, including Medicare, Medicaid, the ACA, and prescription drug coverage. It was after hours when they managed to do this, without any Democratic votes.

Call them.

They seem to think this won’t matter in November because the cuts are scheduled to take effect after the midterms. They’re counting on people not paying attention. Prove them wrong!

These decisions can be reversed by electing a Democratic House and Senate.

Spread the word.

Just moments after voting to House Republicans closed by praying in a moment of silence.

Whether these policies remain in place will depend on future congressional action and election outcomes.

Spread the word.

WHAT THEY COULD HAVE DONE:

  • Our elected representatives didn’t offer to give up their all-inclusive benefits package with comprehensive healthcare and a pension they can collect at age 62.
  • Why not consider taxing billionaires and their corporations?
  • What if we cut the billions in U.S. aid we send to Israel each year. (Israel provides universal healthcare to its citizens.)
  • They didn’t consider cutting their war budget and ending Trump’s pointless attacks on Iran.

  1. ‘It was after hours’…probably at the same time that Trump was planting statues in the Rose Garden.
