Donald Trump and Republican members of Congress are calling for an extension and expansion of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. And they want to pay for it by making drastic reductions in federal spending for Medicaid, CHIP, and SNAP. Pennsylvania voters, like voters in other states, strongly support these programs, and with good reason. Medicaid provides critical support for millions of Pennsylvanians.
These cuts pose a serious threat to Pennsylvania and our state budget, potentially creating a multi-billion dollar shortfall and jeopardizing priorities like public education. Discussions in Washington about extending and expanding the 2017 tax cuts only heightens these threats for working families in Pennsylvania.
This event is open to everyone. Join Pennsylvanians Together, Keystone Progress, and the Pennsylvania Policy Center for a real conversation about proposals that could harm Pennsylvanians, and what we can do about them.
