This bill has been on the Senate floor for days and Republicans still can’t unite to kick people off of their health care and raise costs for Americans.
We can fight this bill.

Ossoff: "If we allow Affordable Care Act benefits to expire, as this bill would, more than a million Georgians will pay more for health insurance next year. A family of 4 in Clayton County making $65k a year - that's a $2,600 increase...the AJC reports 300k Georgians would lose insurance altogether"

Lots of Republicans are going to lose their seats over this budget - federal, state, and local.
It will not cost Trump anything, other than finally some House oversight his last 2 years maybe.
Which is how these things always go with Trump - others always pay for his sins.

They do this cause they know the bill is terrible for their states & districts. So they post a tweet opposing it, then fold right after. That way, come election time, they can claim they “fought it.”
99% of the time, that fight was complete BS.

Hawley is a YES
But: "This has been an unhappy episode here in Congress, this effort to cut Medicaid... Frankly, my party needs to do some soul searching. If you want to be a working-class party, you’ve got to deliver for working-class people. You cannot take away health care from working people."

I want to reiterate that countless conservative judges issued universal injunctions against the Biden administration, and the Supreme Court never halted the practice. Now, barely five months into Trump's second term, the court puts an end to these injunctions. A brazen double standard.

Zohran Mamdani’s plan to tax the rich is a 2% tax on income over $1 million.
If you make $1.1 million, you’d pay an extra $2,000.

Fox News is attempting to paint Mamdani as a radical because he wants to provide “baby baskets to newborns.” Are they aware that the Republican reconciliation bill would give every newborn a “Trump account” with $1000?

Scanlon: They're flat out lying when they say they're just kicking undocumented immigrants off Medicaid because those folks were never eligible for Medicaid in the first place. The truth is Republicans know that kicking millions of Americans off of health insurance is unpopular.
