Now is a great time to reach out to your member of Congress who promised not to cut Medicaid. Or to your conservative friends who don't think we should be exploding the debt. Because today, Donald Trump met with Republicans on Capitol Hill, trying to pass a bill that would do both.

Next week, House Republicans will quietly meet to decide how many families and senior citizens they’ll kick off SNAP food assistance — all to fund tax breaks that make billionaires even richer. If you’re represented by a Republican, they need to hear from you on this betrayal of their constituents.
