The "big, beautiful bill" is a deeply concerning piece of legislation that prioritizes corporate profits and tax cuts for the wealthy over the wellbeing of everyday Americans. While it contains some populist rhetoric about supporting Main Street and family farms, the reality is that this bill would transfer massive amounts of wealth upwards, exacerbating inequality.
The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office estimates it would increase the deficit by $2.4 trillion, burdening future generations. Perhaps most egregiously, the murder budget includes draconian cuts to Medicaid that could devastate access to healthcare for millions, including in rural communities that disproportionately voted for the President. Senators like Josh Hawley and Susan Collins have rightly objected to these provisions that could gravely harm their constituents and cripple rural hospitals. Yet the White House seems intent on ramming this bill through by July 4th regardless of public opposition or negative impacts.
This arrogant attitude of putting arbitrary deadlines and presidential vanity ahead of responsible legislating that serves all Americans is deeply troubling. The President's comments dismissing those with concerns as "grandstanders" who are "not good people" is the height of incivility and disrespect towards his governing partners in Congress.
Mitch McConnell's flippant remark that the American people will "get over" whatever gets passed into law is the precise kind of out-of-touch elitism that has bred so much mistrust of government.
I implore you to reject this reckless push and insist on a genuinely bipartisan process that puts the needs of your constituents first. Ramming through a partisan, deficit-exploding giveaway to the rich is exactly the kind of governance failure that will further alienate Americans who already feel their voices don't matter. Please put country over party and reject this misguided "big, beautiful" murder budget that will only exacerbate divisions.
