John,

A few weeks ago, I sat on the Capitol steps from dawn to dusk to sound the alarm about Republicans’ tax bill — which would hurt kids, seniors, and middle-class Americans who are just trying to get by.

The bill has now been passed by House Republicans.

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has confirmed that the bill would strip health insurance from at least 13.7 million Americans, many of whom live right here in New Jersey.

But it doesn’t stop there. It would also cut food assistance for hungry families, Head Start programs for young kids, Pell Grants to help people afford college, funding for clean air in elementary schools, and more — all to pay for tax cuts for the richest Americans.

And the deficit? This bill would cost $3.72 trillion, John. Exploding the budget deficit while handing most of the tax breaks to the wealthiest Americans who don't need them isn’t just fiscally wrong — it’s morally indefensible.

I’m going to do everything I can to stand up for everyday Americans and stop this bill in the Senate — and I’m going to continue fighting to elect more Democratic Senators who will deliver for working families, not billionaires. Can you pitch in before Saturday’s end-of-month deadline to elect Democrats up and down the ballot?
