The House Republican version of this bill was already a class war, but Senate Republicans decided to inflict even more devastation on the lives of working Americans to give even larger handouts to the top.
For the vast majority of hardworking Americans who pay what they owe on time and in full, it means not getting their calls answered and bearing a larger share of audits.

Senate Republicans would pay for those new corporate tax breaks by making even deeper cuts to Medicaid, slashing funding for rural hospitals and other essential health care providers and throwing cash-strapped states off a funding cliff.
