If blue states kept their money, they would be fine or even better off. Red states would be in deep financial trouble.
Example: California is the fourth largest economy on Earth. It grows over one third of America’s vegetables and two thirds of its fruits and nuts.

This chart shows the increase by state by which Americans will lose health insurance if the “Big Beautiful (TRASH) Bill” is passed by Republicans.
Estimated 50k+ unnecessary deaths a year.
1 millionaire household tax cut = 19 working people losing healthcare.

Over 10 million Americans would lose their healthcare under Trump’s Tax Scam — and that doesn’t include the millions more who would lose their coverage because of GOP cuts to the Affordable Care Act.

The President does not have the authority to make this decision. There is no imminent threat to America from Iran. He cannot take this action without congressional authorization.
I will not vote to give him that authority, and I likely represent the majority of Congress.

Trump is weighing whether to join Israel in striking Iran’s underground Fordow nuclear site, a target only U.S. B-2 bombers with bunker busters can destroy, NYT reports.
