Patriot,
Every day, the “Big, Beautiful” bill gets bigger, and uglier. . .
. . . And demands from citizens for spending cuts and tax relief fall on deaf ears.
The latest news:
— Senate Republicans on the Finance Committee want to water down the tax cuts, including removing the “no tax on tips” proposal that Ron Paul first proposed in 2011. They claim the proposal isn't “pro-growth.”
— House Republican Mark Amodei (NV) plans to block cuts to the taxpayer-funded propaganda organs PBS and NPR.
— Another group of Senate Republicans oppose cuts to Medicaid, the biggest deficit-reduction element of the bill.
— And perhaps the biggest aberration, just hours ago the House announced they are changing the bill in the Rules Committee after the fact, and there won’t be another vote by the entire House on the modified bill!
The so-called “big, beautiful” bill was not beautiful when it barely passed the House.
After all, the bill includes the largest debt ceiling increase in history as proof they plan to continue spending like drunken sailors.
If statist Senate Republicans get their way, by the time the bill comes to a vote in the Senate, it will be much, much uglier.
Instead of keeping the spending and removing the tax cuts, how about we keep the tax cuts and reduce spending?!
Tell your U.S. Senators: REJECT the massive spending bill, and instead pass a LEAN, Beautiful Bill that does what we actually want . . . and what we were promised!

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) provided a simple blueprint for making a slim, beautiful bill:
*** Extend the 2017 Trump tax cuts. This should be passed on a clean up-or-down vote. House Speaker Mike Johnson threw it into the Big Pile to politically blackmail his own caucus: “Vote for the spending, or else taxes will go up!” The American people should be offended their tax cut is being used to demand spending increases.
*** End the Green New Deal scam. Another provision Republicans should be able to easily pass, all by itself, on a clean vote.
*** No grift for the Military Industrial Complex. The so-called “Golden Dome,” for example, is just another trillion-dollar boondoggle. The Big Pile offsets all spending cuts with spending increases in the military, resulting in NO real financial reform.
*** No SALT, No Pork! The Big Pile would have expanded a “state and local tax deduction” that essentially bails out the high-tax states with federal money. A clean spending bill is what Republicans were elected to pass – not record levels of pork and bailouts for states with their own financial problems.
If the Senate cannot put forward a bill that does these things, the bill shouldn't be supported at all.
Patriot, ONE TRILLION DOLLARS is now added to the debt every 100 days.
You and I have come to expect that attitude from the likes of AOC, Bernie Sanders, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and countless other tax-and-spend Democrats.
But if Republicans, who ran on cutting the government, are going to remove the spending cuts and water down the tax cuts, they're no better.
That's why we need to demand our senators CUT THE SPENDING NOW.

All of the reckless spending during the Covid panic that was supposed to be “temporary” set a new baseline for burning through more and more money.
And all of the spending is sacrificing America’s future prosperity so the politicians in Washington, D.C. can enrich lobbyists, Big Pharma, Big Banks, Big Tech, and the Industrial War Machines, who in turn fund the politicians’ campaigns.
It is truly a disgrace.
It’s up to you and me to demand they CUT SPENDING NOW. . .
Because if House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) cave to their left flank, we're not going to get spending cuts . . . maybe ever.
Our patience is at an end.
Take a moment to tell them right now: CUT SPENDING NOW!

P.S. Congress is still working out their tax cuts and spending bill, but statist Republicans are putting your tax cuts in jeopardy by refusing to cut the spending.
The good news is every bit of pushback from We the People helps turn the tide.
Take just a moment to tell Congress: CUT SPENDING NOW!
