I spent months talking to many, many people for this long post-mortem of the Inflation Reduction Act: What forces were responsible for creating it, and how could it be gutted so unceremoniously? What might come next?

No easy answers ofc but hopefully a bit of clarity

The Quick and Shameful Death of Biden’s Biggest Policy
It was far too easy for Republicans to kill the Inflation Reduction Act. Where did those who crafted it go wrong?

It's not bad enough they want to take you back to the London smog days, they are eager to deprive children and safety of a vaccine schedule. This backwards mentality will result in preventable, unnecessary suffering.

Protect public health.

Few nursing homes can care for people who need help breathing with a ventilator because of ALS and other conditions. Insurers often deny payment for the best at-home machines, and innovative solutions are endangered by Medicaid cuts.
They need a ventilator to stay alive. Getting one can be a nightmare

When Trump calls climate change a "con job," he is representing his fossil fuel billionaire friends, not science.
 
Climate change is REAL. It is an existential threat to the planet and future generations.

We must transform our energy systems away from fossil fuels.

Thanks to Trump, 1 in 4 nursing homes could close.

Community clinics are on the brink of shutting their doors.

Hospitals, already filled to the brim with patients, are bracing for huge cuts.

Promising research that offers the last hope for kids with cancer is shutting down.

Based on everything we heard yesterday and everything we’ve seen from him in the past couple months, it’s as clear as ever: RFK Jr. must resign or be fired.

We must not throw 16 million low-income and working class Americans off of the health care they have in order to give massive tax breaks to billionaires.

That is obscene.
