The Power of the People is greater than the People in Power. Keep the pressure on. There's still time. Call House Republicans and tell them to #VoteNo!

Reposted byCongresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon

Governor Josh Shapiro@governor.pa.govJul 2(source)

Every member of congress who votes for this reconciliation bill will be voting to cut Medicaid coverage and food assistance for hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvanians. The impact of this vote would be devastating — and it will be on them.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 2(source)

@housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting to Save Medicaid and SNAP, while the White House is pressuring House Republicans to Cut them. Join us and demand that they put Americans OVER Billionaires! Tell them to #VoteNo on the OBBB!

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 2(source)

We NEED 4 House Republicans to vote with us to SAVE Medicaid and SNAP. Join us and tell them to #VoteNo!

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 2(source)

While you were asleep, House Democrats fought to save your Healthcare and SNAP. The fight isn’t over yet we just need 4 House Republicans to #VoteNo.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 2(source)

The American people Can't Afford House Republicans Rolling Over and Passing the Big BS Bill when their Healthcare and SNAP benefits are at Stake.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

Kids can’t learn on an Empty Stomach. @repangiecraig.bsky.social and I agree that Cuts to SNAP will be Devastating for Children relying on free and reduced-price meals.

American Values: Millions of Americans having Healthcare and Food > Billionaire Tax Cuts

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

Red Tape Republicans are threatening Medicaid for Millions of Children, including: - ~99% of Foster Youth - 1/2 of Nationwide Births - 1/3 of Kids with Cancer

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

Republicans' Work Requirements aren't going after waste, fraud and abuse. They're making it harder to access SNAP for Families, Seniors, Veterans, and Foster Youth in need.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

For every Millionaire that gets a tax cut: - 19 people will be Kicked off their Healthcare - 6 people will Lose their Food Assistance This is a Terrible Deal for Americans!

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

Quick Econ Recap: Trickle-Down Economics is a failed theory. The Big BS Bill is going to create more income inequality. The Mega-Rich will get Mega-Richer, and the Poor will get Poorer.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

This bill is a Monstrosity. It’s indefensible to cut the Healthcare and SNAP for Americans to give Tax Cuts to Billionaires and Big Business.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

Republicans’ Trillion Dollar Cut to Health Care will: - Take Healthcare from 17 Million people - Bury Americans in Medical DEBT - Bankrupt Hospitals and Nursing Homes -Reduce Health Providers - Increase Copays for Medicaid users - Surge Health Insurance Premiums Americans deserve better!

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

The American people’s Healthcare and SNAP are Worth more than Billionaire Tax Cuts. Follow along as we fight to prevent the Big BS Bill from becoming law.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

Pennsylvanians will literally GO HUNGRY because Republicans are Choosing their Billionaire donors OVER the American people. #VoteNo and SAVE SNAP.

The Democratic governor had not previously called the program’s existence into question.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

Republicans want to gut Medicaid for Americans without feeling the Heat in their Own States. They’re Cherry Picking who gets Healthcare to make the Rich Richer.

If a bill is so bad that you have to exempt entire states from its consequences to win the votes you need—just don't pass the bill! Why do people in Washington state deserve Medicaid & SNAP cuts, but others don't? This is plain wrong, and it's just no way to legislate.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 1(source)

Heading back to DC to fight against the Big BS Bill. Republicans want to cut healthcare and SNAP for millions of Americans to pay for a Billionaire tax cut. The fight to stop it isn’t over - stay tuned!

Chris Murphy@chrismurphyct.bsky.socialJul 1(source)

Here’s the latest and it’s hard to believe. In order to secure the last GOP votes, Republicans are going to exempt from the nutrition cuts states with the HIGHEST levels of errors in their food stamp program. So the states that waste the MOST money get no cuts. Up is down.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 29(source)

Thank you to everyone who came to my town hall. As Republicans cut backroom deals to buy votes for their disastrous Reconciliation bill, I will always be transparent on how decisions in DC affect you!
