Oppose the Big Beautiful Bill

On May 22, 2025, the House narrowly passed the “One Big Beautiful Bill” Act, H.R. 1, with a 214-215 vote, mainly along party lines, sending it to the Senate. House committees are finalizing their parts of a Republican-led budget reconciliation bill that includes massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, paid for by deep spending cuts and policy rollbacks. 

These include gutting Medicaid, cutting student aid by $351 billion, reducing federal employee benefits, slashing climate programs, and imposing harsh work requirements on SNAP recipients.
