🚨 SAVE Medicaid from $1 TRILLION GOP Budget Cut ‼️ No ❌ Billionaire Tax Breaks!
🚨 SAVE Medicaid from $1 TRILLION GOP Budget Cut ‼️ No ❌ Billionaire Tax Breaks!
The Issue
🚨 URGENT: The House GOP just advanced a $1 TRILLION Medicaid cut out of committee‼️ The full House vote is expected NEXT WEEK after they return from recess on February 25th—and the Senate is rushing to pass its own devastating budget.
📢 BREAKING: The Senate just advanced Part 1 of their budget out of committee and a full Senate vote is expected NEXT WEEK. If the House bill passes, the Senate could quickly pick it up for a vote, escalating this crisis.
💥 These budgets slash healthcare, food aid, Social Security, and education for tens of millions—all to hand $4.5 TRILLION in tax cuts to billionaires. The GOP can only afford to lose ONE VOTE in the House, and we have a REAL SHOT at victory—but ONLY if we act NOW.
📣 This budget is a cruel betrayal of America’s working families, seniors, people with disabilities, children, and tens of millions of Americans who rely on these programs to survive.
- Rips away healthcare from 36 million people, slashes food aid for 40 million, and drives tens of millions into poverty—all to hand billionaires $4.5 TRILLION in tax cuts.
- Forces hospital closures (especially in rural areas), pushes seniors into poverty, prices students out of college, and leaves parents unable to feed their children.
- Mass-layoffs of healthcare workers, skyrocketing grocery & housing costs, and economic devastation—all while billionaires hoard massive tax breaks.
🚨 Congress is moving fast—we have to move faster.
👉 The Senate votes NEXT WEEK on Part 1—STOP IT NOW.
👉 The House votes on Feb. 25—pressure them to REJECT IT.
👉 If either passes, the Senate could move quickly on the House bill—demand they kill it.

🚨 The GOP’s Cruel Budget Would 🚨
❌ Gut Healthcare, Education & Basic Needs
🏥 Slash Medicaid by nearly $1 TRILLION
House Republicans openly admit it’s their main target for cuts.
- 36 million people—including seniors, parents, and people with disabilities—would lose coverage.
- Mass hospital closures, particularly in rural areas.
- Massive layoffs of critical healthcare personnel, increasing ER wait times & worsening care.
- Skyrocketing healthcare costs for EVERYONE.
🌽 Cut $230B from agriculture, slashing food aid for 40 million people—including children and seniors who rely on SNAP to survive.
📚Cut $330B from education, making college even more expensive while:
- Eliminating student loan forgiveness.
- Raising student loan interest rates.
- Defunding Pell Grants, pushing students further into debt.
- Wiping out funding for community colleges & vocational training programs.
💸 Fail to extend premium tax credits, raising healthcare costs for 20 million people—including small business owners and self-employed workers.
❌ Hand Billions to the Wealthy While Raising Costs for Everyone Else
💵 $4.5 TRILLION in tax cuts to billionaires and corporations, while raising taxes on working families.
💰The top 1% (those making $743K+/yr) would get an average tax cut of $62K per year—more than the entire annual income of ALL families at risk of losing Medicaid or SNAP.
👵 Threaten Social Security & public services by cutting funding for IRS enforcement and deporting millions of undocumented workers who contribute toward it through payroll taxes, allowing billionaires to dodge taxes while working families pay more.
❌ Spend $300 BILLION on inhumane mass deportations & border militarization
Instead of strengthening security and the economy, this reckless policy would destroy industries, tear families apart, and increase inflation— while undermining Social Security and national security.
🚨Economic & Humanitarian Disaster:
📈 Skyrocketing grocery prices & farm bankruptcies, as 70% of farmers already struggle to hire workers, and mass deportation would wipe out 45% of agricultural workers, causing dairy prices to increase by 90% and threatening America’s food supply.
🏡 Deepening the housing crisis — 20% of the construction workforce would be lost, making housing shortages worse and driving up costs.
🏥 Senior care collapse — 139,000 home health aides would disappear, forcing nursing homes and elder care facilities to shut down.
💰$20 billion in Social Security funding would be lost annually—undocumented workers contribute $20 billion every year but can’t collect benefits. Deporting them weakens retirement security for ALL Americans, devastating our seniors.
🚔 Trump’s mass deportation plan would turn America into a police state, ripping families apart and forcing millions—including unaccompanied children—into mass detention sites. Indiscriminate detention and deportation would divert law enforcement from real crime, jeopardizing national security. Refugees and asylum seekers would be sent to military-run facilities, including detention camps being built at Guantánamo Bay where they have no rights.
Instead of wasting $300 billion on a cruel, self-inflicted crisis, Congress should pursue real solutions like earned pathways to citizenship for peaceful immigrants positively contributing to their communities and our economy that strengthen our economy and security while upholding human rights.
🚨 Racial Profiling & Civil Rights Violations
🚫 Targeted for Their Skin Color: Mass deportation policies promote racial profiling, where Latinos and other minorities—many of them U.S. citizens—are wrongfully detained simply for “looking undocumented.” During Arizona’s 1997 Chandler Roundup, legal residents and citizens were arrested based on appearance alone, a clear violation of civil rights.
⚖️ A Threat to Freedom: These policies turn entire communities into targets, fueling discrimination, wrongful arrests, and fear—undermining the very freedoms America stands for.
❌ Increase Poverty & Economic Inequality
🏥 Force states to cover Medicaid & SNAP costs — leading to devastating cuts in healthcare, food aid, and education funding.
⚡️ Raise utility costs by cutting energy tax credits, making electricity bills more expensive.
👴 Cut Social Security Administration funding, making it harder for seniors and people with disabilities to access their benefits.
❌ Explode the Debt by $4 TRILLION While Making Americans Poorer
💰 Despite GOP claims of “fiscal responsibility,” their budget ADDS $1.6 TRILLION to the debt — all to finance massive tax breaks for billionaires while working families suffer.
💵 GOP’s own economic “bonus” projections have been debunked by multiple independent experts.
🏛️ Senate Republicans just advanced their own budget out of committee with even MORE Medicaid cuts, a second round of tax breaks for the rich, and MORE spending on border militarization.
🚨 The House and Senate Budgets are a Betrayal — Congress Must Reject Them!
📢 We cannot allow this betrayal of the American people, including millions of Trump voters dependent on Medicaid, Social Security, and SNAP who were promised their benefits would be protected, to pass. We demand that Congress reject the disastrous budgets proposed by the House and Senate and instead:
✔️ Protect Medicaid & other essential social programs like Social Security and SNAP benefits—not gut them.
✔️ Invest in education, healthcare, and infrastructure—not billionaire tax breaks.
✔️ Reject mass deportation spending & instead pursue humane immigration reform, including earned pathways to citizenship
✔️ Ensure economic policies benefit working people, not the ultra-rich.
✔️Make the wealthy pay their fair share
🎯 This is NOT about Left vs. Right — this is about protecting tens of millions of Americans from extreme policies that devastate working families while making the rich richer. The American people deserve a government that works for everyone—not just the wealthiest few. Congress must reject these reckless, cruel, and immoral budgets.
🚨 We Have a Real Shot to Stop This—But We Must Act FAST!
📢 The full House and Senate votes happen NEXT WEEK ‼️
📢 If the House bill passes, the Senate could take it up for a vote almost immediately.
📢 Over a dozen Republicans have voiced concerns—this is our chance to pressure them to stop it!
