Vote NO on Budget Bill That Harms Veterans, Families, and Our Democracy.

house As your constituent, I write to urge you to vote NO on the Senate-passed budget bill unless it is significantly revised to protect fundamental American values—care for our veterans, support for working families, and fiscal responsibility. The proposed bill would: • Cut $863 billion from Medicaid, threatening health care for over 80 million Americans—including 1 in 3 children, millions of seniors, and nearly 1.75 million veterans who rely on Medicaid for long-term care, mental health support, and basic services. • Result in an estimated 435,000 preventable deaths over the next decade due to the loss of health coverage and delayed treatment, according to published health access studies. • Slash SNAP food assistance, putting nearly 10 million people, including 4 million children, at greater risk of food insecurity. • Force working families to absorb hundreds of dollars per month in additional health costs, straining household budgets across rural and urban America alike. • Add up to $2.8 trillion to the national deficit, while offering tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy and corporations. • Include divisive and harmful anti-LGBTQ+ and anti-immigrant riders that do not belong in a budget bill. • Move forward without a full and final CBO score, denying the public and lawmakers the transparency this legislation demands. Every medical bankruptcy, every denied claim, every untreated veteran, every hungry child, and every lost life resulting from this bill will remind voters who stood with the people—and who chose cruelty. I respectfully urge you to reject this budget bill unless it is revised to: • Remove Medicaid cuts • Protect SNAP and other essential food programs • End tax giveaways for billionaires • Eliminate anti-immigrant and anti-LGBTQ+ riders • Require full CBO scoring before any final vote This is a moment that demands moral courage and fiscal integrity. The families, veterans, and workers in your district are watching. Please vote to protect care—not punish the vulnerable. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.
