PEACE HOUSE

The Senate passed Trump’s Medicaid-slashing, billionaire-enriching, big ugly bill. Republicans are celebrating, and we understand if you’re feeling angry and deflated, but this fight isn’t over. You’ve already moved the needle. You made Medicaid the defining issue of the debate. Senator Thom Tillis broke with Trump on national TV, called out the cruelty of this bill, and announced he wouldn’t seek re-election rather than betray his state’s Medicaid recipients. That didn’t happen in a vacuum — it happened because North Carolinians showed up, called in, rallied at Hands Off events, and refused to let him look away. The bill now heads back to the House, where Republicans can only afford to lose three votes. It barely squeaked by with a single-vote margin the first time, and it’s only gotten more divisive since. Here is what you can do now.
