I firmly urge you to denounce and vote against H.R. 1, the highly destructive "One Big Beautiful Bill Act." This budget would enact drastic cuts to vital programs that support vulnerable communities, all to finance massive tax cuts for the wealthy. Don't be like Sen. Murkowski, and vote for something that you know is wrong; be strong and vote it down.   The provisions slashing Medicaid, including imposing harsh work requirements, would cruelly strip healthcare from tens of millions. Gutting funding for SNAP would exacerbate hunger and food insecurity across the nation. Cutting access to gender-affirming care under Medicaid and CHIP constitutes blatant discrimination against transgender individuals. Defunding Planned Parenthood undermines comprehensive reproductive healthcare.   These draconian measures serve only to boost corporate profits and to funnel money upward at the expense of human dignity and well-being. Rather than squandering trillions to line the pockets of the rich, Congress should promote policies that uplift working families and invest in our shared future. I implore you to reject this shameful budget that so blatantly disregards the needs of your constituents.
