Want a Big Tent? Use Congressional Oversight
Ahead of the 4th of July holiday weekend, Republicans are trying to ram through their One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which includes enough horrors to dampen any parade. As written, the bill will do untold harm to Americans across the country through devastating cuts to Medicaid, food assistance, and student loan forgiveness. Working people will suffer, but the Republican’s bill will be a boon for the wealthy, fossil fuel interests, and draconian immigration detention centers. Democrats will not be able to stop the destruction, but they can use every available tool to make sure the public knows who is to blame.

By hollowing out federal statistics, limiting information gathering, and redacting inconvenient reports, the Trump administration is warping reality to suit its political narrative. The goal isn’t just to obscure the effects of the president’s policies, it’s to prevent the public from seeing them at all.
