The Big Beautiful Betrayal: Murphy Opening Remarks - Senator Chris Murphy
WASHINGTON–U.S. Senators Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) and Tim Kaine (D-Va.), both members of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee, hosted “The Big Beautiful Betrayal—Working Folks Pay While The Mega Rich Profit,” a spotlight forum to highlight how Donald Trump and Republicans’ tax bill would make major spending cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs that families across the country rely on in order to pay for a massive tax cut for the ultra-wealthy.
The forum featured individuals who could be affected by the tax bill’s massive cuts to government programs and subject-matter experts. - 06/17/2025.
