Add your name: Denounce Senate Republicans for passing Trump's tax scam

Senate Republicans

In the early hours of December 2, Senate Republicans voted almost entirely down party lines for a massively corrupt scam designed to finance enormous tax cuts for millionaires, billionaires and large corporations at the expense of working families. Tennessee Senator Bob Corker was the lone Republican to oppose the bill. Every Democrat voted no.

In doing so, they have taken a pivotal step towards redistributing wealth upwards and further stratifying income inequality for the next decade, at least.

In fact, they fell over themselves for this bill. For example:
  • Sens. Daines and Johnson abandoned working class families in their states to negotiate tax breaks that benefit...wait for it...their own, personal interests;
  • Sen. Murkowski voted to end cancer treatments for Medicare patients in order to destroy wilderness that indigenous Alaskans rely on and have worked hard to protect;
  • Sen. Collins took a promise as binding for...no one is really sure what she gained by believing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell at his word but she definitely helped strip away a crucial portion of Obamacare;
  • Sen. Flake decided that corporate tax breaks were more important than his career-long dedication to lowering the deficit.

The list goes on. Senate Republicans rushed an unpopular bill with devastating consequences for the everyday people they represent. McConnell didn't even slow down enough to allow senators to read the legislation before voting. Once again, they have proven themselves amoral and contemptible.

Add your name: Shame on Senate Republicans. The tax plan proves once again that Republicans are unfit to govern.

Shame on you for passing a bill that benefits large corporations and the top 1% at a cost to low- and middle- income families. You have set this country on a disastrous path and I will not forget your vote.
