Whitehouse Slams Senate Passage of Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires Bill

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) today issued the following statement after Senate Republicans jammed through their Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires Bill: “Trump’s Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires Bill is one massively destructive piece of legislation.  Cooked in back rooms, dropped at midnight, and fraudulently scored, it increases costs for everyone by walloping the health care system, making families go hungry, and sending utility bills through the roof.  It saddles our children and grandchildren with trillions and trillions of dollars in debt – all to serve giant corporations, fossil fuel polluters, and billionaire Republican megadonors who are already among the richest people on the planet.”
