How do Republicans plan to pass Trump’s deeply unpopular budget?

 

Congressional Republicans have a narrow majority. So how do they plan on passing Trump’s budget priorities that include funding for ICE, Border Patrol, and the Pentagon while cutting critical human needs? Come hear from our panel of experts this Thursday, April 16 at 1:00pm ET / 10:00am PT at a timely webinar, Threats to Basic Needs Programs: Looming Budget Battles and the President’s Proposed Cuts. Click here to RSVP for Thursday’s webinar. RSVP We’ll hear from speakers about Republicans’ plan to use reconciliation to jam through the president’s priorities―a mechanism that would allow the Senate to pass Trump’s budget with a simple majority instead of needing to clear a 60 vote threshold. They know that’s the only way they can possibly pass Trump’s unpopular agenda. We’ll also discuss what you and our broader movement can do to fight back against these attacks on children and families, communities of color, our housing and health care needs, immigrants, and others struggling to make ends meet. Featured speakers include: Marc Morial, President and CEO of the National Urban League Ellen Nissenbaum, Sr. Advisor, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities Sunjeev Bery, Campaign Director, People Over Pentagon Jenny Rudisill, Sr. Vice President, Health Policy, First Focus on Children Kim Johnson, Sr. Director of Policy, National Low Income Housing Coalition If you can’t attend, please power our critical work, which is empowering activists and advocates alike as we fight back against calls for increased militarism at home and abroad―paid for by cuts to health care, nutrition, and more.
