You know what's strange, Indivisibles?
Congressional Republicans up for tough reelection fights next year are suddenly saying that they oppose cuts to Medicaid, when just a few short weeks ago, they supported a budget blueprint that would almost certainly decimate it, threatening healthcare for 80 million Americans.
And when asked what they’ll actually do to save Medicaid -- like oppose their party’s forthcoming reconciliation plan -- those same Republicans go silent. They’re not answering questions on what their party’s planning, and they’re certainly not facing their constituents at town halls.
Congressional Republicans don’t want us talking about their reconciliation plan because they know it screws over working people by taking trillions from Medicaid, SNAP, and other programs to pay for billionaires’ tax breaks. We need to get them on the record and hold them accountable.
Click here to call your GOP representative about their weakness protecting Medicaid and SNAP from Trump’s reconciliation scam. We need the support of red-district Indivisibles across the country to get their representatives on the record!
Democrats recently introduced the Hands Off Medicaid and SNAP Act (H.R. 2753) to protect essential programs from being defunded through reconciliation. It’s a straightforward bill that any lawmaker who’s serious about protecting Medicaid and SNAP should have no trouble supporting. If you believe people should have healthcare and food on their tables, this bill is for you.
Now, we need your help forcing Republican lawmakers to come out and say where they really stand -- and explain why they won’t actually fight to save Medicaid, SNAP, and investments that help working people. We’ll provide the number and call script designed to get your rep on the record, but we need YOU to make the call.
Call your Republican representative right now to demand they go on the record about where they stand on cuts to Medicaid and SNAP. If they say they’ll protect those programs, hold them to it by demanding they back the Hands Off Medicaid and SNAP Act.
If you can’t get through on the phone during business hours (or even after you do), you can also send your representative an email in just a few clicks.
Republicans believe they can dodge their constituents and evade accountability as they go along with Trump’s agenda that robs working people so Elon Musk and other billionaires get big tax breaks. We cannot let them get away with it.
Your calls and emails are crucial to winning the fight against Trump’s merciless reconciliation plan.
Thank you, Indivisible Team
