An open letter to the U.S. House of Representatives
Oppose H.R. 1: the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" because cuts have consequences!
6 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!
The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" is a destructive piece of legislation that must be firmly opposed. It is unconscionable to finance trillions in tax cuts for the wealthy by slashing vital government programs that millions of Americans rely on. Gutting Medicaid with harsh work requirements while restricting Medicare eligibility and increasing costs for dual enrollees would devastate healthcare access for vulnerable populations. Tripling ICE's budget to supercharge Trump's cruel mass deportation agenda tears families apart and betrays our nation's values. Stripping away clean energy incentives and environmental protections exacerbates the climate crisis, while unprecedented SNAP funding cuts would drastically increase food insecurity. Defunding Planned Parenthood undermines essential healthcare services, and taxing college endowments makes higher education less accessible. Deregulating AI development and eliminating gun silencer taxes put public safety at risk. This reckless bill adds $2.4 trillion to deficits solely to enrich the wealthy and corporations through tax giveaways. Congress should reject this draconian budget that guts social programs to reward the rich. Instead, they must pass legislation that uplifts working families, safeguards our rights and wellbeing, and charts a sustainable path forward for all. The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" fails on every count and warrants strenuous opposition.
