People spend have spent millions on books and lectures to learn how rich people achieved their success. This is called learning-by-example.
The GOP wants to do that too, but they’re going to copy the same tax plan mistakes that killed a state.
This #TrumpTaxScam has passed out of committee, BARELY. Flood the phone lines and let’s stop this on the floor.
The CBO has determined that the Senate GOP tax bill hurts the poor more than originally thought. (Wapo), (Wapo), (Time), (Axios), (aol.com) (DailyKos). There are those who are thrilled that 13 million Americans will once again have the “freedom” to choose between eating and paying for insurance, returning “control over their lives” and their health care to emergency room visits.
Mitch McConnell needs to pass the Senate version of the #TrumpTaxScam this week, possibly by Wednesday, if they’re going to be able to give Trump the multi-million dollar Christmas gift he’s demanding. This is our last chance to stop this very unpopular and destructive bill from becoming law.
Step #1. If we defeat it, Trump and the GOP are toast. Call our own senators!
Tell our Democratic senators to use every maneuver they have to delay the vote.
Minimal Script: I’m calling from [zip code] and I’m asking Senator [___] commit to withholding consent on votes in the Senate so that we have time to mobilize against the Tax Scam bill, just like they did in the health care fight.
Senator Feinstein: DC (202) 224-3841, LA (310) 914-7300, SF (415) 393-0707, SD (619) 231-9712, Fresno (559) 485-7430
and Senator Harris: DC (202) 224-3553, LA (213) 894-5000, SAC (916) 448-2787, Fresno (559) 497-5109, SF (415) 355-9041, SD (619) 239-3884
