ImageDonald Trump and House Republicans promised to lower costs for American families. They lied.
They're planning to betray the middle class and raise costs on American families, all to pay for giveaways to Trump's billionaire donors.
As Republicans Push Forward with Extreme Economic Agenda, Budget Democrats Expose How Their Plans Will Betray Middle-Class Americans
Newly launched website reveals district-by-district data on the impact of Republican cuts on everyday Americans
WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Brendan F. Boyle (PA-02), Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee, announced the launch of a new website detailing the impact of House Republicans’ economic plans on every congressional district. The launch follows Republicans’ announcement that they will advance legislation through the Budget Committee on Thursday. Their extreme plan would extend massive tax breaks for the wealthy while cutting essential programs that everyday Americans rely on.
“House Republicans love to brag about their giveaways to the ultra-rich—but they’re a lot quieter about how their extreme economic plans betray the middle class,” said Ranking Member Boyle. “So, we decided to do them a favor and spell it out for everyone. Our new tool lets families see exactly how this Republican rip-off would hit their communities. Every American family deserves to know what the GOP has in store for them—and we’re going to make sure they see just how much pain and suffering House Republicans are willing to unleash just to bankroll handouts for billionaires and big corporations.”
With House Republicans pushing trillions in deficit-busting handouts for the richest few, a new website reveals how their extreme economic plans could drive up health care and food costs for families. Budget Committee Democrats will continue updating this page with the latest on how House Republicans are ripping off American families.
