Why did Republicans gut health care? To fund tax breaks for billionaires.

Why’d they gut child nutrition benefits? Tax breaks for billionaires.

Why’d they add $30 TRILLION to the debt? Tax breaks for billionaires!!!

They’re fighting for billionaires. We’re fighting for YOU.

We’re in the midst of a government shutdown, and millions could lose access to healthcare and see their monthly insurance go THROUGH THE ROOF!

Why? Trump and the GOP want to “maximize pain” and keep the government shut down.

Healthcare is a human right. We need universal healthcare for all! Now.
