House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s GOP is holding the nation hostage, using the threat of default on the national debt as their weapon, and they have finally released their demands.
With a June 1st deadline to stave off default, Republicans in the House are calling for trillions of dollars of cruel cuts to essential health care, nutrition, housing, energy, and education programs that will cause massive harm to middle-class and low-income earning families.
The next step is up to the Senate. The Senate must stand firm and reject the House’s draconian proposals, designed to cut taxes on the wealthy and corporations at the expense of those who can least afford it.
