Sen Wyden breaks down leaked memo from House Budget Committee GOP

[Nanjeanne]

3. This list is sheer insanity.

Eliminating Child/Dependent Care Credit
Repealing Green Energy Tax Credits
Eliminating Head of Household Filing Status
Getting rid of many clean air/pollution reduction funding
Eliminate charitable deductions to Health Organizations
Eliminate nonprofit status for hospitals
Getting rid of mortgage interest deductions
Allow them to tax scholarship money
Repeal the minimum nursing staffing rule for nursing homes

And - here's a medical disaster waiting . . .

Eliminate the inpatient only list so they can do same day procedures in low cost outpatient settings!

And there's even more to unpack!

Meanwhile - lowering corporate tax rates, adding 10% tariffs etc.

So.... my question is ARE DEMOCRATS GOING TO DO ANYTHING? FIGHT OR CAVE? When I think that only 9 Senators stood against Republicans and voted NO on that disgraceful Laken Riley Act - I have little hope. I don't think we can only depend on: Booker, Hirono, Kim, Markey, Merkley, Sanders, Schatz, Smith and Warren to keep the defense up.
