THE REPUBLICANS WAR ON THE MIDDLE CLASS. CONGRESSMAN DAVID CICILLINE.



December 1, 2017
  Dear David,

Today, Senate Republicans are racing to pass a huge tax cut for corporations and wealthy Americans. In fact, their plan will give 50% of the tax cuts to the Top 1%. At the same time, Republicans are going to raise taxes on 82 million middle class Americans, cut $1.5 trillion from Medicare and Medicaid, unravel the Affordable Care Act, and blow up the deficit – meaning the next generation will have to pay the bill.

This jobs-killing proposal is just wrong. I’m proud to be fighting against this bill. It’s a raw deal, and the American people deserve A Better Deal with better jobs, better wages, and a better future. Those are the priorities I’m going to keep fighting for.



 

Manuel Mello of Portsmouth lost his life on the battlefields of Italy during World War II. His service and sacrifice exemplified the remarkable courage and devotion to duty of his generation. All of us owe heroes like him our solemn gratitude. That’s why I was so honored to be able to present his brother Philip with the medals Manuel earned in service to our nation. For generations to come, these medals will serve as a tribute to Manuel’s outstanding bravery and legacy of service. 

If you or a family member never received meals, or they have since disappeared, please contact my office at 729-5600 and we will do our best to assist you. 

TRUMP TAX SCAM. U.S. SENATOR SHELDON WHITEHOUSE.

TrumpTax is a scam. Early this morning, while most Americans were sleeping, Senate Republicans voted to hike taxes on millions of middle-class families to pay for tax cuts for President Trump and his billionaire friends. This so-called ‘tax reform’ moves our nation in the wrong direction by every measure: it will send more American jobs overseas, increase health insurance premiums, explode our national debt, and pollute an already-complicated tax code with new loopholes and gifts for the very wealthy. It’s a giveaway to Republican donors, and the American people should take note. https://mobile.nytimes.com/…/us/polit…/senate-tax-bill.html…
Senate Republicans made major changes to their bill and picked up the votes to push it through the chamber 51-49 early Saturday morning.

SENATOR JOHN McCAIN- A SENSE OF DUTY TO HIS COUNTRY... NOW AND THEN.


THIS IS WHAT HONOR SOUNDS LIKE.
"I cannot in good conscience vote for Graham-Cassidy. A bill impacting so many lives deserves a bipartisan approach." SENATOR JOHN McCAIN.

UPDATE....12/2/2017... MY MISTAKE, I GUESS HONOR IS FOR SALE. I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER. HOW MANY RELATIVES AND ANCESTORS OF THOSE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES FOR THIS COUNTRY, WILL NO LONGER HAVE AFFORDABLE MEDICAL INS. HOW "PROUD" NIMITZ WOULD BE.- DAVID.

FACING THE TRUTH: THE COST OF HATE. PART 1.



Handcuffed, Arrest, Oppression, Racism

It is time to pull away the Blinders and see the REPUBLICAN TAX PLAN FOR WHAT IT REALLY IS- A CHANCE TO BRING TOGETHER TWO SEPARATE IDEOLOGIES THAT ARE AFTER THE SAME THING: TO HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OVER THE LIVES OF ALL AMERICANS, FINANCIALLY, ETHICALLY AND SPIRITUALLY.  IT IS THE TOTALITARIAN DREAM THAT FAVORS THE FEW, AT THE EXPENSE OF THE MANY.

Consider the following; What do we know about DONALD TRUMP THE POLITICIAN, IN TERMS OF WHERE HIS SUPPORT LIES;


1.  Those who favor BIG TAX BENEFITS FOR CORPORATE AMERICA, AND KEEPING THE COUNTRIES WEALTH IN THE HANDS OF THE FEW. NO UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, AND FEW REGULATIONS THAT PROTECT THE CONSUMER.


2. Those who believe in the SOCIAL HIERARCHY THAT FAVORS SPECIFIC GROUPS, AND PERSECUTES OTHERS. FREEDOM OF RELIGION, SPEECH, OR ASSEMBLY etc., ARE NO LONGER RIGHTS UNIVERSALLY APPLIED TO ALL, BUT ARE GIVEN HANDED OUT AS PRIVILEGES BY THOSE WHO CARE LITTLE FOR CONSTITUTIONAL GUARANTEES.


Before you answer, think about it, carefully. When you look at those Politicians who favor TRUMPS

ECONOMIC POLICIES THE MOST, WHAT IS THE GENERAL MAKE UP OF THE 
CONSTITUENCIES THEY REPRESENT. Do they have ...

-...a Higher Standard of Living, when compared

to the rest of the Nation?

-...a Population with a High Percentage having

Medical Coverage, when compared to other States?

-...Wage Standards above the Minimum required by 

Federal Law, that are Adjusted for Inflation or
Economic Necessity?

-...a Public School System that emphasizes the disciplines of Science 

and Logic, whether or not they disagree with Religious Faith?

If we find that some States are consistently located at the lower end 

of the Spectrum, and are represented by Politicians who support
Economic Policies that do not address these problems, we must ask
the question: WHY ARE THEY ELECTED, AND REELECTED,
TIME AFTER TIME?

STAY TUNED...
