The extra-extreme members of the House Budget Committee voted "present" tonight so that the Medicaid-cuts-to-fund-tax-giveaways-for-the-rich bill could pass out of committee 17-16.

Tomorrow, flood Capitol Hill switchboards to voice your opposition to this monstrosity.

Perfect. Does she solemnly swear?…..
In a video posted by Elon Musk’s PAC, a $1M check recipient linked voting to receiving the money:

“My name’s Ekaterina Deistler. …I did exactly what Elon Musk told everyone to do: sign the petition, refer friends and family, vote, and now I have a million dollars.”

Just wait until you see the turnout on April 5th. The people are rising.
