Congressman Veasey Votes Against "Trump Tax Scam Bill", Condemns Cuts to Medicaid

May 22, 2025

Washington, D.C. – Following the House vote on the GOP-led reconciliation bill, Congressman Marc Veasey (TX-33) released the following statement:

“In the dead of night, Republicans pushed through the Trump Tax Scam bill, one of the biggest tax giveaways for billionaires we've ever seen. Let me be clear: Trump and Republicans are stealing from the seniors, mothers, children, and veterans to give to billionaires. This bill guts Medicaid, putting millions of Americans at risk of losing life-saving health care. This bill also takes food from the hands of American children everywhere. Republicans can try to hide all they want, but the best disinfectant is sunlight and we will keep shining a light on this Republican ROBBERY. We will keep fighting reckless Radical Republicans, we will keep defending families in need, and we will keep standing up to Trump."
