I am asking you to vote against OBBBA, which is a flagrant razing of our economy at the expense of a few. The following provisions included in the current bill demonstrate how broad and deep OBBBA will cut:
• 15 million people will be losing their health coverage
• Millions will be losing food assistance, including at least 2 million children
• The 10% of households with the lowest incomes will be made worse off, while the richest get richer by tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars each year
• Trillions of dollars will be added to our debt over the next decade, worsening our long-term fiscal posture
• The bill also makes higher education more expensive for millions by driving up the cost of student loans and reducing the level of Pell education grants available for college students.
• Adds permanent expansions for wealthy households, and leaving millions of children in working families with low incomes out of even the temporary increase in the Child Tax Credit.
In 2027, it gives households earning more than $1 million a year an average tax cut of roughly $90,000, while low-income households receive an average of just $90 from the tax cuts. All while these households bear the brunt of cuts to Medicaid and SNAP, and face higher prices due to the President’s tariffs—which the bill does nothing to address.
I am asking you to represent my interests and those of all your constituents. Reject any proposals that raise costs on working families, take health coverage and food assistance away from those who need it most, or drive up poverty and the number of people who are uninsured.
