The Big Bad Bill Must Go Down

Happy Tuesday, Activists! 

 

Republicans just passed the the Trump Tax Scam, a/k/a the Big Disgusting Bill, in the Senate and now it goes back to the House.  These horrible cuts are all because they have to get that money money money to the wealthiest in the country at the cost to the poorest and middle class.

 

But House Republicans will still need to hold their very fractured coalition together to take a vote on the bill by the end of the self-imposed deadline to get it to Trump's desk by July 4.  Tick tock, time's a-wasting while they fight amongst themselves.

 TELL OUR HOUSE MEMBERS TO VOTE NO WHEN THE BIG DISGUSTING BILL

GETS BACK TO THE HOUSE

 

Now that the bill moves back to the House it's time for us to spring into action!  The House Republicans are also very divided so we have a chance to slow down the vote so more Americans see the damage they are causing.

 

Email or call your representative and tell them you will not stand for cuts to SNAP and Medicaid to fund billionaires' tax breaks.  In the House the Republicans have another razor-thin margin, so let's work to stop it there.

 

Here are the contacts -- 

Rep. Evans – D.C. 202-225-4001; Phila. offices (215) 276-0340, (215) 254-3400; email link

Rep. Boyle – D.C. office 202-225-6111; Phila office 215-335-3355; email link

Rep. Scanlon -- D.C. office 202-225-2011; Chester office (610) 626-2020; email link
