BREAKING: MAJOR UPDATE on Trump’s budget bill
In a shocking turn of events, Republicans have successfully pushed through what many are calling the most unpopular budget bill in modern U.S. history, with a mere one-third of Americans supporting it. As of late Saturday night, the Senate has advanced a bill that threatens to strip healthcare from 14 million people and cut food assistance by $300 billion, all while ballooning the deficit by a staggering $3 trillion.
This bill is a direct attack on the most vulnerable, with devastating cuts to Medicaid that could affect children, seniors, and people with disabilities. Despite vocal opposition from within their ranks, including Senator Josh Hawley, who has long criticized the bill’s harsh provisions, Republican senators have fallen in line, prioritizing party loyalty over the welfare of millions. Hawley’s hypocrisy is glaring—he voted for the very bill he condemned.
The urgency is palpable. With a final Senate vote expected as early as Sunday night or Monday morning, advocates are urging constituents to take action. “Call your senators now,” implores Elizabeth Warren, who warns that if passed, one in four nursing homes could close, exacerbating an already dire situation for seniors in need of care.
This budget bill is not merely a financial document; it represents a moral crossroads for the Republican Party, which has historically promised to serve the interests of the wealthy while neglecting the needs of everyday Americans. As the clock ticks down, the stakes couldn’t be higher. The time to act is now—make your voice heard before it’s too late.
