The U.S. House passed the budget reconciliation bill before Memorial Day, and the Senate is now debating it. If passed, this bill will take away human rights and make it harder for people to survive.
Some of the dangerous provisions in this bill are:
- The largest cut to Medicaid ever, which covers 1 in 4 Americans and 40% of all pregnancies
- A $500 billion cut to Medicare and substantial cuts to the Affordable Care Act
- Gutting of the SNAP food program which helps 40 million people put food on the table
- Removal of incentives for clean energy to combat climate change
- Massive funding for abductions of our immigrant community members
- Trillions of dollars in tax cuts to billionaires and big corporations
Tell your Senators that this bill will take away life-giving medical care, food, housing, and safety from our family members, friends, neighbors, and coworkers, and that you are opposed to it. Every phone call you make is logged by staffers and every Senator matters!
The Holy Spirit sent the disciples out across the land over 2,000 years ago. Today, with His accompaniment, let us take action and engage others in our advocacy so that the Senate considers our priorities at this crucial time.
