Washington, DC – The federal budget expected to be passed by the Republican Congress, is an assault on working people. This attack will take healthcare from millions, steal food from children by gutting SNAP, and slash research and funding for public schools. American families will suffer while billionaires gain tax breaks.
Healthcare services will be removed from 17 million Americans. Cuts to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act will hurt every community. Federal reductions to healthcare funding will reduce access to care, throw state budgets into chaos, cut healthcare jobs, and raise the price of healthcare for families throughout the United States.
This Republican bill is the largest transfer of wealth from working people to the rich in our nation’s history. It’s anti-worker and it does nothing to lower prices or improve lives.
The fight for healthcare-for-all has just begun.
