Political Quotes

“A budget reflects one's values. President Trump's budget shows he values polluters and profits over people. With the ink barely dry on the Republican tax scam, Trump's budget proposes we pay for their corporate giveaway by gutting public health and environmental programs. One of the budget's largest targets is the EPA, which will suffer a 25 percent cut. This means cuts to grants that help States like California implement the Clean Air and Clean Water Act. That means cuts to Superfund programs that clean up sites where toxic chemicals from factories and landfills were dumped for decades, polluting the surrounding soil, water, and air. We simply cannot afford a dirty budget that prioritizes polluters and profits over people. ____________________”
