Republicans' hugely unpopular bill is law; will they pay the electoral price for it they should? My research with @sullosaurus for @equitablegrowth has good news and bad news. The good: voters informed about the bill's effects overwhelmingly oppose it. equitablegrowth.org/american…

If enacted, the #ReconciliationBill may be "most regressive U.S. tax and budget law in at least the past four decades." How are Americans’ views of the bill affected by information about its regressive effects?

About 26 people in Iowa pay the estate tax each year -
The estate tax is paid by less than 1 in 1,000 estates - wealthiest heirs in the country (ie not family farmers)

Trump: "Very importantly for Iowa, this bill rescues over 2 billion family farms from the so-called estate tax or the death tax."
(over 2 billion??????)

Senate Republicans made a horrible House bill even worse. House Republicans should step back & find the courage to say no to any bill that would raise costs & take health coverage & food assistance away from people struggling to afford the basics.

Trying to stay cautiously optimistic that we will see a few "profiles in courage" in the House today in the form of "NO" votes on the most regressive tax and budget bill in living memory

Republican members of Congress should take note
Republicans who voted to "repeal and replace" the Affordable Care Act in 2017 were more likely to lose reelection than their co-partisans who voted "No"

But more importantly, they should vote "NO" on this horrendous and cruel piece of legislation because it's the right thing to do...

"healthcare that ought by right go to his fellow citizens" says guy taking healthcare from tens of millions of his fellow citizens
This guy wants to bankrupt Medicaid by importing millions of illegal immigrants and giving them healthcare that ought by right go to his fellow citizens. Now he pretends to care about them.
The dishonesty is off the charts.

100K people will die from preventable deaths when millions lose their health insurance.
Hard to see how that is immaterial.
Everything else—the CBO score, the proper baseline, the minutiae of the Medicaid policy—is immaterial compared to the ICE money and immigration enforcement provisions.

More evidence -- here from Howard Gleckman over at TPC - at how the Senate bill has become more extreme, including more regressive on the tax side
