This bill is the opposite of American Patriotism

This bill was passed under the guise of freedom, opportunity, and American greatness. It’s anything but.

Freedom isn’t cutting healthcare for cancer patients.

Opportunity isn’t preventing poor kids from eating if their parents are unemployed.

Greatness isn’t erasing data, defunding science, and deregulating ethics.

Science is the embodiment of democratic ideals: transparency, inquiry, accountability, and the pursuit of truth. This “Big Beautiful Bill” is putting to death the American ideals in favor of ideology, greed, and corruption.
