GOP's Tax Scam: Billionaires First, Americans Last
The Republican Party's latest tax plan, backed by Donald Trump, is a clear example of their priorities: lining the pockets of billionaires like Elon Musk at the expense of the American people.
Even though the Senate passed the Big, Ugly Bill, THE FIGHT IS FAR FROM OVER! We have one last opportunity to delay, disrupt, and ideally defeat the bill. But we have to act NOW.
Talking Points
The Republican tax scam includes $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the ultrawealthy and big corporations, while cutting Medicaid, nutrition assistance, and other essential programs.
17 million Americans will lose their health insurance, and 11.8 million people will go hungry, including children who rely on school meals.
Working families will face higher costs for housing, healthcare, and groceries, all to benefit billionaires who will receive massive handouts.
Republicans are ramming these cuts through via reconciliation to avoid working with Democrats on a tax plan that would actually benefit working families.
Vulnerable House Republicans are feeling the pressure from their constituents and are afraid of the political price they'll pay for gutting Medicaid and SNAP.
The bill makes the largest Medicaid cut in history, takes healthcare away from millions, and increases healthcare costs for everyone else.
It also takes food assistance away from millions, leaving kids, seniors, people with disabilities, and veterans to go hungry.
The bill blows up the national debt by at least $4 trillion, all to give huge new tax breaks to billionaires.
This is a betrayal of working people from coast to coast, leaving everyday Americans worse off.

Here is an example script you can use for your call:
Hello, my name is [YOUR NAME] and I am a constituent from [YOUR CITY, STATE].
I am calling to urge [YOUR LAWMAKER'S NAME] to oppose the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
This bill would raise the cost of health care, food, and utilities for the working class, make the largest-ever cuts to Medicaid and SNAP, roll back insurance coverage and basic food assistance for millions of vulnerable Americans, and harm children, people with disabilities, veterans, and more. At the same time, it would also undermine our country’s energy security and increase gas prices while exploding the national debt, all in the name of enacting lavish tax breaks for billionaires.
[YOUR LAWMAKER'S NAME] must vote against this extreme and harmful legislation when it comes up for a vote.
Thank you!
