An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Who Will Suffer — and Who Will Die — If These Cuts Are Passed? Answer!

6 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

I am writing as your constituent to demand a direct answer — not a form letter, not talking points — to a basic moral question: Who will suffer more? • The 13.7 million Americans expected to lose health care coverage • The 41 million people who depend on SNAP to avoid hunger • The 2.4 million seniors and disabled individuals who rely on Meals on Wheels • The thousands of veterans, nurses, and public employees who will lose jobs — and with them, their housing, healthcare, and ability to support their families That’s over 57 million Americans who will face very real hardship — hunger, eviction, medical crises, and death — so that: • 750 billionaires, or roughly 3,000 people in total (including family members), can get even more tax cuts. Now answer this: • How many billionaires will go hungry if they don’t get another tax cut? • How many billionaires will lose their health care or homes? • How many billionaires rely on Meals on Wheels? • How many billionaires will lose their jobs and livelihoods? • How many billionaires will die? Now compare that to the rest: • According to studies published in The Lancet and the American Journal of Public Health, every 1 million uninsured Americans leads to approximately 1,300 preventable deaths per year. That means cutting care for 13.7 million could lead to over 17,800 deaths annually — just from healthcare loss alone. No similar mortality risk exists for billionaires if they don’t get more tax breaks. None. So I ask one final time — and I expect a direct answer: Who will suffer more? Who will die? The 3,000 wealthiest Americans — or the 57 million whose basic survival is being traded away? If you believe the answer is obvious, then vote like it. Vote to protect the lives of your constituents, not the portfolios of billionaires.
