Senate Actions on Budget Reconciliation
As recently passed by the U.S. House of Representatives, the budget reconciliation bill would be the largest upward transfer of wealth in recent history and would add trillions to the deficit. It’s now up to the Senate to restore sanity.
Details and a call script are in the May 23 installment of the “Chop Wood, Carry Water” Substack.
As of Sunday, June 1, this one is for the senators only.
