About this event
This week, the Trump administration issued a directive that could cut off federal funding for programs like Medicaid, SNAP, school lunches, and others that working families rely on. All so they can pass more tax cuts for billionaires. A federal judge stopped them for now, but they've made it clear they're going to keep trying to slash these critical programs.
We're telling Republicans in Congress no cuts for working families and no more tax cuts for billionaires - sign up to make calls to voters in Republican districts and ask them to reach out to their Member of Congress!
👥 No experience? No problem! Well provide a quick training and a scriptyou just need a phone, a laptop, and the will to make an impact.

My retort is this: WHY aren't people pressuring the GOP, which has a narrow majority

But we DON'T have every single Democrat on board. And why the hell don't we?
