This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

One thing I'd add to that segment: we tracked GOP town halls all over the country last week. We counted only 8! So 95% of GOP members are hiding from their constituents. If we're going to pressure them publicly, local groups are going to have to get creative. Stay tuned for more on that front soon!

Utah lawmakers advance tax cut that gives top 1% of earners about $2,000/year while average Utah families get enough to buy lunch at Crown Burger ($31/year). www.utahpoliticalwatch.news/latest-utah-...

Representative Burgess Owens would love to hear from you if you are one of the 302,714 Utahns who are enrolled in Medicaid--because he just voted to slash it! West Jordan Office: 801 999-9801 DC Office: 202-225-3011

Our March Newsletter was just posted. Here are the three things we are focusing on this next month: 1. The Budget

This sociopath honestly does not believe in a single core American principle.

URGENT: The House is set to vote tomorrow on whether to advance $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid — eviscerating essential programs that provide lifesaving services for people with disabilities, children, seniors, and more. Tell your representative now: Don't cut Medicaid.

Yes to this! BUT, also consider just straight up cutting ties with Amazon. No Prime Membership. No Purchases. I've been doing it since 2019. It is possible (and honestly not that difficult)!

Holy shit. This is scary. Senator Chris Murphy just revealed on the Senate floor that Republicans now have the votes to cut $2 trillion in services for seniors on Medicare and kids on Medicaid. Tomorrow is the House’s vote. $2 TRILLION IN CUTS. The worst part 👇

We now have a monthly newsletter! To anyone in the Salt Lake City suburbs that is interested in joining our organization, or just wants to stay up to date with news and local events from Indivisible Daybreak, please sign up! indivisibledaybreak.substack.com

Senator Curtis on "budget reform" (i.e. the tax cut to come): "It doesn’t take a budget expert to recognize that if we refuse to examine the massive portion of federal spending deemed 'untouchable' — primarily Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid — we’ll never achieve a balanced budget."

Not to pour cold water on the German elections, but these exit polls tell an interesting story: The AfD has had the largest gain in support (roughly doubled) since the 2021 elections (Die Linke also doubled but with much smaller percentages)

Thankfully, it seems the AfD has been defeated! www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

Secretary Merit has a real knack for always saying the quiet part out loud.

One of the facilities being considered is Hill Air Force Base, thirty minutes north of Salt Lake City. Let Senator Lee and Curtis, as well as Governor Cox, know that we REFUSE to allow this inhumanity to occur in Utah! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

As a state with some of the most popular national parks in the country, I'm sure Senator Curtis would love to hear your thoughts on slashing Utah jobs and gutting our tourism industry! DC Office: 202-224-5251 SLC Office: 801-524-4380

None of this, None of THIS, NONE OF THIS IS ABOUT ROOTING OUT FRAUD AND WASTE!

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Then, just hear me out, don't sign the bill.

UTAH ‼️🚨 Upcoming rally! Bring your smiles, voices, banners, flags and horns! ❤️💚 #saltlakecitystrong

I think these people honestly believe that if they commit corruption in broad daylight it is somehow not a crime?

There’s still time to stop Kash Patel’s nomination. Patel, who helped produce a version of the Star-Spangled Banner sung by violent January 6th inmates, has salivated about prosecuting the media. Call your senators: indivisible.org/resource/cal... Email instead: act.indivisible.org/sign/demand-...

Senator Curtis knew better. They all knew better. They are putting us all at grave risk simply to appease the former host of the Celebrity Apprentice. Despicable.

Fabulous 🇺🇸💥

Take this seriously! The Trump Administration already believes they are above the legislative branch (re: Musk). But if the Trump Administration truly believes they are also above the judicial branch, we are in an actual constitutional crisis.

"The pressure needs to STAY ON! DON'T STOP!"

Purging dissent in the security services and giving loyalists power is something we *instantly* recognize in other contexts.

Utah.

This is a population already highly susceptible to go missing, or being kicked out of their homes. The Trump administration is clearly stating they do not care if LGBTQ people disappear off of the face of the earth.

Thanks to everyone that was able to tune in to our first meeting! Even though things are especially dark right now, it was very encouraging to see so many people focused and ready to do something about this lawless administration! Here is what we talked about (1/4)

Our first meeting is kicking off this afternoon at 2PM MST! www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Murphy: "The reality is this could get dystopian very quickly. If you were to start speaking ill of Elon Musk on social media, Musk might be able to stop or delay your tax refund, or your mom's Social Security benefit, in part because we have no window into what's happening at Treasury right now."

This is quite literally ethnic cleansing, but I thought these folks were staunchly anti-regime change wars?

“I don’t think the United States Senate should vote for a single nominee until this is over!” - @chrismurphyct.bsky.social

"Yeah it is blatantly unconstitutional but whatareyagonnado? Am I right folks?!"

Elon Musk and his band of Lost Boys are roaming around the federal government, breaking into whatever agency they want, gaining access to computers with sensitive data, and gutting them. This is a coup in broad daylight! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/03/u...

This is happening, quite literally, in our backyard. www.abc4.com/news/wasatch...
