On the recordMarch 14, 2019
This week the President broke his promise to America's seniors that he would not cut Medicare or Social Security benefits. After Republicans in Congress passed a massive tax giveaway for corporations and the wealthiest 1 percent, the President now wants to balance the budget on the backs of our seniors and students. This budget cuts $2 trillion from Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security over the next 10 years, programs that our seniors have paid into for decades. As students face a $1 trillion student loan debt crisis, Trump's budget pushes affordable college further out of reach by cutting $207 billion from student loan programs. Thankfully, Americans voted overwhelmingly last election to place a check on this President by sending a new Democratic majority to Congress, and they can rest assured knowing that we will not consider the President's cruel budget cuts in this House. ____________________
