Congressman Suhas Subramanyam Releases Statement on the Passage of the Republican Budget Bill

May 22, 2025 Press Release “I am proud to have rejected the Tax Scam bill. By supporting this bill, House Republicans and this Administration broke their promises to the American people. They promised they wouldn't cut Medicaid, yet this bill takes away access to care and dignity for 13.7 million Americans. They promised they would address waste, fraud, and abuse yet this bill makes it easier to fire the very people in the federal government who prevent it and who make government efficient. They promised to lower the national debt, yet this bill increases it by $4 trillion. And they promised they would support working families, but this bill will strip $300 billion in SNAP benefits from kids and families. The only promise they fulfilled is to mortgage our country's present and future to fund giveaways to their billionaire and corporate donors, who will receive the majority of the benefit from these policies that have failed time and time again. I urge the Senate to reject these misguided policies and work on a bipartisan way to address the health, safety, and prosperity of our country.” ### Issues : Congress
