House Republicans Pass Their Deplorable Tax Bill

House Republicans have passed their version of the tax bill, which would deliver a massive tax break to the wealthy, explodes the deficit, guts the Affordable Care Act, and includes "personhood" language that lays the groundwork for an outright abortion ban.

They were really excited about it, too.

Now the Senate will vote on their plan, so now is the time to start calling and let your Senators know that you don't want them to pass this deplorable plan to concentrate wealth even further in the hands of corporations and the wealthy, destroy healthcare, and plunge the country deeper into debt.

We need Americans to speak out now more than ever. Senate Rs are still deliberating their plan, and they don’t yet have the votes. Call your senator TODAY to tell them NO tax plan that raises middle class taxes, attacks health care, and blows up the deficit. 202-224-3121. https://t.co/h0licRSphB

Senate Republicans are going to do everything they can to give Donald Trump the legislative win that has eluded him for the first 300 days of his presidency.

Time to urgently make a shitload of noise to discourage them.
