Fight Back against the Big, Bad, Billionaire Tax Break


Republicans in the House passed MAGA’s Big Bad Billionaires bill by a single vote - and now it is in the hands of the Senate. 

The Senate aims to finalize this bill by July 4, so we need to act fast. 

📞 Call your Senators NOW and tell them to vote NO on this dangerous reconciliation bill.

Why This Matters 

This bill would do massive damage to the fabric of American society, with the single largest transfer of wealth in US history, taking money from Medicare, Medicaid and food stamps to pay for massive tax breaks for the top 1%. 

Trillions in tax breaks would balloon the federal deficit by $3.4 trillion in only 10 years. 

The bill would effectively legalize corruption, preventing any government employee from being held in contempt of court if they defy a judge’s ruling. 

It would destroy the country’s nascent clean energy manufacturing renaissance and cut billions in education to fund projects such as ICE detention centers.

These provisions aren’t just harmful — they’re a coordinated attack on working people, students, climate progress and democracy itself. 

The Trump budget passed by the House is too much even for some Republican Senators. If the House and Senate are not able to reconcile, it would mean the death and burial of this big, bad, budget bomb – and a victory for hard-working Americans.
