FIGHTING FOR ECONOMIC JUSTICE & DEMOCRACY Send a message to Congress |
Republican leaders in Congress are planning a budget that slashes access to healthcare for millions of Americans and could raise taxes on our hard-earned union healthcare benefits. The vote on this budget could come as soon as Tuesday.
They want to cut programs that millions of Americans rely on in order to give massive tax breaks to their billionaire donors and corporate CEOs. Their tax plan would disproportionately benefit the wealthiest people in the country, effectively transferring over $1 trillion from programs helping the American people into tax cuts for the super rich.
Send a message to Congress now demanding they protect our healthcare.
Here is what they are planning:
- A tax on on high-quality healthcare plans — which really means taxing our hard-fought union plans
- Cutting Medicaid, the program that provides healthcare access to families with limited incomes and millions of retirees
- Rolling back the Affordable Care Act, which allows millions of Americans to access healthcare
Our tax dollars should help working families, not be used to line the pockets of billionaires.
In unity,
Dan Mauer
