🚨The Senate is on the verge of passing a budget bill that will cut taxes for the most wealthy and devastate American families.

Here's what will happen if it passes 🧵:
$930 billion cut from Medicaid.

Leaving our vulnerable families out to dry. These are not just numbers on a page, they are peoples lives on the line.

Your electric bill is about to be higher.

Republicans are pushing a bill that kills clean energy projects—driving up the cost to build wind & solar, and jacking up utility prices nationwide.

You’ll pay more and fossil fuel CEOs will profit. Image
They are taking food out of the mouths of children‼️

Republicans are putting our communities at risk of increased hunger by cutting food assistance programs that help our families feed their kids. Image
All this chaos—for what?

To hand their billionaire donors tax breaks and stick you with the tab.

They can hide behind words like “waste” and “fraud,” but the numbers don’t lie: this is about taking from working Americans to give to the ultra-rich. Image

President Trump and Stephen Miller have turned HHS into an immigration enforcement agency. There should be a bright line between ORR and DHS, and the Trump administration’s insistence on blurring that line is outrageous.
buzzfeednews.com/article/hameda…
ICE officials coming into shelters to fingerprint youngsters in ORR care is antithetical to ORR’s mission, which is to take care of kids and place them into sponsor’s care as safely and expeditiously as possible.
Make no mistake: ICE’s intention is to intimidate and scare children by entering these shelters, and if HHS allows ICE to do so, they will be complicit.
