The nuns are getting back on the bus. In a 21-state, 27-day, 54-event tour ending at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago, the Nuns on the Bus will make the case against the Republican tax law:
“We’re going on the road to hold members accountable for their votes,” said Sister Simone Campbell, the executive director of the NETWORK Lobby for Catholic Social Justice and a member of the Sisters of Social Service. “When Republicans in Congress passed their tax plan into law last fall, we knew it was rooted in the fallacy of trickle-down economics. Now, we’ve seen the results of structuring tax policy to favor the biggest corporations and the wealthiest individuals in our nation.”
The nuns will be visiting the districts of House Republicans who voted for the law, many of whom are in competitive races.
