None of them had time to read the bill, which had handwritten sections scribbled in during the night that Democratic Senators had to find out about from K Street lobbyists because of their Republican colleagues' appalling, secretive process. “The Senate bill was rushed through in the dead of night to hide from the people the fact that it steals from the vast majority of Americans to benefit the very few. In addition to giving huge tax breaks to the very rich, the bill's price tag of well over $1 trillion would trigger automatic cuts to Medicare and other programs starting next year. Next week, House and Senate Republicans will try to reconcile the awful tax scams that have now passed both houses and ram a bill through to President Trump's desk. We can’t stand by and let Congressional Republicans and their lobbyists rig this system even further against working families. I will keep fighting to stop this truly devastating bill from becoming law and hurting New Hampshire families.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
