Citizen Action Illinois accurately points out that Trump’s Big Ugly Bill hurts families who depend on SNAP. The advocacy group targeted GOP Rep. Darin LaHood for supporting Trump’s disastrous legislation.

“The fact is that everyday people will suffer from these slashes,” said organizer King Moosa.

They are selling out their own voters who are desperate for help affording skyrocketing health care premiums.

IMPORTANT POINT: For millions of American families, the Trump-GOP hike in health-insurance premiums set for the end of the year will far outweigh any minor tax cut they may receive from the president's Big Ugly Bill.

Rep. Casar is absolutely right.

It's long past time to make billionaires pay their fair share. The wealthiest 1% in this country have seen their fortunes explode while working families struggle to keep up.

Robert Reich is exactly right - and Fair Share America's leadership was instrumental in passing the Massachusetts Millionaire's Tax.

"Thomas Paine devoted himself to the American patriot cause because he believed in government by the people, not by the wealthy and connected few. He recognized the economy and the polity are inextricably linked and citizens cannot have an equal voice in politics while wealth is extremely unequal."
Opinion | The case for taxing billionaires is older than you think
A wealth tax, with a top rate of 100%, is common sense.

I've been reposting everyone replying to this post with their own ACA (and sometimes employer!) price hikes. Feel free to add yours. There is some comfort in knowing you aren't alone and knowing we'll all be voting on this issue in a year.
