MADISON, Wis. — In response to the GOP led House ramming through the Big Ugly Bill all so Trump can sign into law funding cuts for Medicaid and SNAP, Democratic Party of Wisconsin Executive Director Sarah Abel released the following statement:
“These Republican thieves, led by Derrick Van Orden, are stealing funding for health care and food security from children, veterans and seniors, and giving that money to billionaires whose only recent problem in life was debating what to wear to Jeff Bezos’s wedding. So while these same burglars masquerading as politicians toast their ‘success’, working Wisconsin families will be frantically trying to figure out how to pay their medical bills and put food on the table — two things that elected officials like Derrick Van Orden get to enjoy on the taxpayers’ dime. We will be holding him and those who supported this betrayal of Wisconsin’s working families accountable until they are defeated at the ballot box.”
