House Republicans aren’t just failing to govern—they are actively working to hand Trump, Elon Musk, and other right-wing billionaires total control over federal spending, government agencies, and even public data. Instead of passing a responsible budget that keeps the government running, they are using the budget process as a weapon to:
- Slash funding for programs working families rely on, like Medicaid, Social Security, and food assistance, while preserving giveaways for billionaires and corporations.
- Sneak extremist poison pill riders into the budget that attack abortion rights, LGBTQ+ protections, and immigrant communities.
- Let Trump, Musk, and MAGA operatives override federal spending decisions, giving them unchecked power to funnel taxpayer money into their pet projects and defund programs they don’t like.
- Block any oversight of Trump’s plan to seize control of the federal government, refusing to hold hearings or investigate how his allies are laying the groundwork for authoritarian rule.
The end goal isn’t just about the budget—it’s about dismantling democracy and handing unelected billionaires the power to dictate government spending behind closed doors.
