Hakeem Jeffries on Trump: We Will Continue to Press Our Case, Making Clear the Type of Damage the Bill Would Do if It Became Law

‘Trump‘s one big ugly bill narrowly escaped the House of Representatives’

RUSH EXCERPT:
JEFFRIES: "Trump‘s one. Big ugly bill. Narrowly escaped the. House of Representatives. And we‘re going to continue to. Press our case across the country. Partner with. Senate Democrats in. Making clear to the American people the. Type of. Damage that this. Bill would do if it. Ever became law. This bill actually hurts everyday Americans. In order. To reward. Billionaires, it. Would strip away health care from approximately 14. Million. Americans premiums, co-pays. And. Deductibles for tens. Of. Millions more. Will go up. Actually. If it ever were to be implemented into law, hospitals. Will close, nursing homes will shut down, and people will. Literally die at the same time. This bill represents the. Largest cut. To nutritional assistance. In American history. It takes. Food out of the mouths. Of children, seniors. And veterans. And all of this is being done in. Order. To enact massive. Tax breaks for. Their billionaire donors like Elon Musk. And then they want to stick the American. People with the bill, increase the debt by more than. $5 trillion. So I expect that you‘ll see strong democratic opposition in the Senate. Just like there was."
