Until we see what the @SenateGOP’s midnight rewrite looks like, let’s go over what we know the #GOPTaxScam does so far: [thread]

The
#GOPTaxBill opens up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge -America’s most pristine wilderness- to drilling, a move opposed by most Americans and by tribal leaders.https://nativenewsonline.net/currents/tribes-native-people-pay-heavy-price-trumps-tax-gift-rich/ …Show this thread -
It benefits the highest earners, and will end up saddling many middle class families with a tax hike.

The
#GOPTaxBill could RAISE taxes on millions of Americans ages 65 & older. cc:@AARPadvocateshttp://bit.ly/2ndQ0rTShow this thread -
Even with a proposed “fix” the
#GOPTaxScam’s repeal of the ACA’s individual mandate is opposed by 12 major, national, patient advocacy groups because it puts affordable care in jeopardy: http://t.congressweb.com/l/?NFBLFFNDLVCXJKZ …Show this thread -
And -in case you missed it- the
#GOPTaxScam will increase the deficit by roughly $1 TRILLION. That’s not tax relief, that’s a burden for many generations.Show this thread -
Who is the GOP trying to rush this terrible bill thru for? These religious leaders know it’s sure not to help the poor around the holidays:https://networklobby.org/news/20171129tax/ …

And it’s not being rushed thru to help workers. In fact,
@SenateGOP refused to accept a@SenSherrodBrown#ABetterDeal amendment to help companies keep & grow jobs in the USA - so much for#AmericaFirstShow this thread -
Make sure you know how your Senators are going to vote tomorrow on this bill. I will let NYers & everyone know what comes in the GOP’s next secret draft, but it’s your calls, emails, faxes, et al that make the difference, so please make your voices heard on this

@SenToomey doesn't care how badly he will hurt his state if those deductions are repealed. He should be voting NO, but instead he's been advocating for this repeal since early in his last term.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Isn’t double taxation unconstitutional? I learned this from School House Rock when I was 8. Perhaps the GOP needs to watch a few episodes.

Chances are we New Yorkers are subsidizing your state. We get 56¢ back for ever dollar we pay in taxes. Red states get more than what they pay. The GOP wants the blue states to pay more for their Red states.

Then have your home state stop funding useless projects & programs and provide tax cuts at the state level. Federal government taxes are forbwhat the federal government needs to operate.

Senator Schumer, we are in the exact same predicament here in Illinois. Our real estate taxes are already some of the highest, and to get double-dinged with taxes is obscene.
