Bernie Sanders:

Make absolutely no mistake about it, I believe historians will look back at the afternoon of July 3, 2025 and conclude that the passage of Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" was one of the greatest acts of thievery in the history of the United States, and one of the worst pieces of legislation passed in modern American history.

Plain and simple, this bill is class warfare led by Donald Trump, the Republican Party and their campaign contributors.

More for the rich. Less for working families.

Let's look at what this legislation does.

At a time when 85 million Americans are uninsured or underinsured, this bill slashes Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act kicking 17 million more people off their health care, including millions of kids.

It means if your mom and dad are in a nursing home, they're going to be in trouble because 2/3 of people in nursing homes are supported by Medicaid.

And here's an amazing irony. Many of the "red states" and districts where Republicans are providing the votes to pass this legislation have done reasonably well under the Affordable Care Act. These are states that have seen the number of uninsured people precipitously decline, and states that have relied heavily on Medicaid to counter the opioid epidemic and other health crises.
