“the Republican bill that now sits before the Senate is poison. Last night, Senate Republicans began the process to pass legislation eviscerating Medicaid, crushing the healthcare of the young and old alike, and squandering their future and our future. First thing this morning, we will talk about why they are doing this, so they can achieve tax cuts for the ultrarich.

Donald Trump is betraying us. This is the Republican agenda, plain and simple: Billionaires win, American families lose. Republicans have failed to be honest with the country about the true nature of their cuts. Today, this morning, Senate Democrats will come to the floor to put the Republican agenda on trial before the court of public opinion. Democrats will expose the dark corners of the Republicans' plan. We will explain the devastating consequences and highlight the many injustices that the Republicans will inflict on people's health, on their financial security, on their children's future, and, in fact, on their very dream, the very future of the American dream itself. I spoke--many of us spoke--on the issue of Medicaid last night.…”
