In #Trump's #economy, the #government bends over backward to cut #taxes for the #rich, let big companies become too big, and everyone else can pay 10x insurance premiums and starve. And the #workingclass is starting to notice:
"According to the latest YouGov/Economist poll, only 31 percent of those earning $50,000 or less approve of Trump's handling of the presidency, compared to 65 percent who disapprove and 4 percent who were unsure.'

In Trump's America #Billionaires get tax cuts, while ordinary #Americans go hungry:
"Starting next October, #Trump’s so-called #OneBigBeautifulBill Act will shift billions in #SNAP costs from the federal government onto states. Some states won’t be able to afford this, and they could be forced to deeply cut or even shutter their SNAP programs altogether"

The #Trump / #GOP budget brings the axe down on #NorthCarolina's neck:
"An analysis by the UNC School of Medicine found the program saved $1,000 annually for each of the 13,000 #Medicaid recipients enrolled in the pilot, which covers three rural swaths of the state... But the program is shutting down, an early casualty of the cuts to Medicaid that #Congress approved in July."

”More than 51,000 people, according to studies at Yale will die in the first year of this bill because it is a policy murder, a policy violence; this bill is morally indefensible and cuts more than 60 million people from healthcare unnecessarily just to give money to greedy and wealthy who don’t need it.”

#Rural communities were amongst #Trump's most ardent supporters. His #GOP budget bill repays that support by gutting their #Medicaid coverage and endangering their hospitals, who will likely have to reduce services even for non-Medicaid patients.

The Trump budget bill will undermine public schools.
The bill includes a tax credit for contributions made to organizations that provide money for children to attend private schools* —
An estimated $26 billion revenue loss for the federal government.
#Republicans seek to incentivize private K-12 education.
* Blue states can opt out.

On May 20, 2025, Donald Trump, Mike Johnson, and Lisa McClain celebrated a narrow victory as Trump's significant budget bill passed with a 218-214 vote. Despite the success, dissent arose from two Republicans and critics claiming the bill favors the affluent while leaving vulnerable populations behind. This development stirs internal party conflict and concerns for future implications.

AOC wrote on BlueSky, a good summary of the Trump budget bill adopted in Congress.
"I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing."

Please copy and paste the below message into the forms on the websites of your Representatives.
Dear Representative --
Please remind your Republican counterparts that this artificial deadline is just that -- artificial. There is no reason it has to get done quickly.
Your most important job is to produce a useful and productive budget for the American people.
Tell them not to give in until there's a budget that serves all Americans, not just the wealthy.

College students w/o deep pockets, esp. grad students, may have to turn to private lenders if the proposed #trump budget legislation becomes law.
Federal student loans are preferred because of their consist terms & conditions, set by the #USA government.
This is concerning for a nation with what many would considered be a student loan crisis.

“There are no real consequences from missing the July 4 deadline that #Trump set, but any changes would require another Senate vote.”
“It’s absolutely gobsmacking that #Republicans have found a way to run up the debt by $3.3 trillion and still drive countless millions into hardship. The #USA will be a weaker, sicker and poorer country.”

80% of Americans earn less than $100k per year.
If the #gop #BudgetBill passes they will gain $14 a week.
If the bill fails, they will lose $9 a week.
If course, the remaining 20% - those making over $100k - make all the gains. The bulk of savings go to the 1%.

Republicans not wanting to restrict economic growth seek to ban states from making up their own rules about generative AI —
Despite there being NO FEDERAL FRAMEWORK on the matter.
If states want to access $500 million in federal funding for AI projects, there must be NO regulation.
