The second day of debate over the Republicans tax cut bill in the Senate Finance Committee is off to a bang, starting with Chairman Orrin Hatch. He released his draft of the bill—now including repeal of the Obamacare mandate, in a tweet late last night. Democrats are not taking it lying down.
No time to read and study, says Hatch. In fact, he warns Democrats, if they want to talk about health care, he’ll just shut questions down.
This is a bill that, as Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) says “gets worse by the hour.” The Republicans are trying to jam this through as fast as they can, before the resistance has time to shut it down. Don’t let them.
The Republican tax giveaway to the super wealthy is an attack on our health care, an attack as dangerous as Trumpcare was. Please, call your senators and member of the House of Representatives at (202) 224-3121 and tell them to vote "no" on the Republican tax bill.
