No on budget reconciliation
To: Sen. King, Sen. Collins
From: A verified voter in South Portland, ME
April 4
I understand that Senate Republicans plan to use “ tricks” to pass a budget resolution that will slash Medicaid and SNAP and blow up the deficit. They are even talking about going around the Parliamentarian in order to do so. How dare they?
My son is intellectually disabled and relies on Medicaid. How will the millions who need Medicaid survive? What’s the long range plan for taking care of our most vulnerable and needy Americans?
I expect the Senator to vote no on any reconciliation package that gives tax cuts to rich people and corporations while gutting programs that help regular Americans— all while exploding our deficit. All the tricks in the world won’t make this OK. Vote no. Thanks.
