The proposed bill would severely hurt our rural medical facilities by taking medicaid funds. Susan Bonamici says,”
The local hospital and clinic leaders I met with were clear: Oregon’s hospitals and clinics are already struggling financially, and the GOP’s cuts would force them to stop providing some services, reduce staff, and, especially with smaller rural facilities, even close their doors. People still get sick when they don’t have insurance, but too often they go without preventive or primary care. This leads to worsening health conditions and overcrowding of emergency rooms”

Trump’s budget would ban states from implementing AI safeguards — a dangerous proposal that only helps Big Tech companies.
It FORCES the government to sell off millions of acres of our public Arctic land for oil and gas development, allowing big corporations to run roughshod over sacred Native lands, critical wildlife preserves, and pristine wilderness.
Another provision would strip power from federal judges to hold Trump admin officials accountable for defying court orders.
The House bill could add anywhere from $3.8 trillion to $5.3 trillion to the deficit over a decade, while the Senate version could potentially cost even more.
Please call your seanators and representatives to vote no on this bill!
Thank you!
