Stop the Bloated Billionaire Bill

This week, before the July 4th holiday, is the most important time to call to fight against the horrible bill that will kick millions of people off Medicaid, give more tax breaks to the uber rich, & let AI run unregulated for 10 years.

Trump wants to rush the bill through before July 4, but there are many steps before that happens where we can stop them. The Senate is voting and then the bill goes back to the House where both the Senate and the House will reconcile the differences between the two bills and then vote on the final bill.

We MUST Stop this bill for the future of our planet and the health of our people. Use our resources below to call every day until this bill is stopped. No matter if your representatives are Republican or Democrat!
