🚨 Trump's big ugly abomination of a bill is a direct attack on our healthcare programs. 🩺 17 million Americans will lose access to healthcare 💸 $1.3 TRILLION stripped from Medicaid & Medicare 🚫 Planned Parenthood defunded I will vote HELL NO as you know.
Trump’s big ugly abomination of a bill gives permanent tax breaks to billionaires and corporations on the backs of working families. 📈 The wealthiest 10% will gain 4% in income. 📉 The poorest 10% will lose 4%. New Mexico families? Left holding the bag. Again. We will vote HELL NO.
Looks like Leadership called their bluff—the vote is called now at 9:30 pm on the rule. Votes on this big ugly abomination of a bill will happen late into the night.
Surprise! Freedom Caucus members are threatening to vote NO on the GOP rule to move the bill (but NOT in the morning? 🤔) This is political theater. The deals are cut & they have long abandoned being true fiscal conservatives. They’ll put up a faux fight tonight, but not for our country tomorrow.

While “Fiscal Conservatives” are issuing strongly worded letters to House Leadership (for real, that actually happened) — Republicans have stalled out on the Floor without enough votes to move to the #BigUglyBill. Here’s your mid-afternoon update. ⬇️
Things are stalled out here on the House Floor as Trump tries to arm twist and get Freedom Caucus members onboard with massive deficit spending… So, Congresswoman Lateefah Simon and I took the opportunity to break down what big ugly bill means for the hard working people of our communities.
It’s 3 AM and I just rolled into DC to vote on this big abomination of a bill passed by the Senate. There’s a lot to be said about this bill. But, I’m ready to vote a Hell NO on it. It’s bad for our communities. It’s bad for our kids. And, it’s bad for our economy. We’re here for the fight!
Trump’s big abomination of a bill will slash tax credits for families and small business owners who get healthcare coverage through the marketplace.   This will cause premiums to SOAR, leading to more stress and creating yet another barrier that would prevent New Mexicans from getting healthcare.
Trump’s big abomination of a bill will gut rural hospitals. There are 15 rural hospitals right here in New Mexico. If this bill passes all 15 will be facing the brink. Our rural families deserve high-quality care in our communities, not to be forced to travel hours to be seen.
Medicaid is the largest source of healthcare in NM, and the loss of federal matching dollars could mean the loss of coverage for thousands of families, decreased coverage and providers, and the closure of hospitals and clinics across our state.
Trump’s big abomination of a bill cuts Medicaid by almost $1 TRILLION.   More than 840,000 people in NM are on Medicaid. These cuts have the capacity to DEVASTATE our healthcare system and families all across the state.  This is cruelty thinly veiled as budget policy.
Friends, I’m on my way back to D.C. to vote a resounding HELL NO on Trump and the GOP’s big abomination of a bill.   While I travel back, I want to share some of the reasons I’m voting NO. This bill is bad for New Mexico and Americans all across the country.
Sandia Labs are a backbone of our community in New Mexico.    More layoffs mean more New Mexicans and local economies suffering under the current Administration’s policies.  And, the ripple effects will only continue to reverberate.
