Washington, D.C. – Families Over Billionaires Director Michael Linden released the following statement regarding House Republicans’ passage of their billionaire-first budget framework:
“Despite bipartisan backlash and overwhelming public opposition, House Republicans decided to ignore their own constituents’ concerns and pass a budget proposal that gives trillions in tax breaks to billionaires at the expense of hardworking American families.
This is just the first step in the process, and Republicans’ billionaire-first proposal will not become law without a fight. The Families Over Billionaires campaign stands with the millions of Americans who want to see the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share instead of giving yet another handout to billionaires that working families are stuck paying for – and we will use every tool available to stop this cruel, wasteful, and unfair proposal.”
