Hillary Clinton Instagram – Trump’s executive order to stop all federal grant funding—trillions of dollars of taxpayer money—is a five-alarm fire for our Constitutional system of government and for millions of Americans’ lives.
We need our members of Congress to push back on this immediately.
What you can do: Call your representatives and urge them to fight back. You can use the script attached to this post when calling. The number to the Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121.
Here’s more on why this is so dangerous.
Trump is saying he has the power to stop distributions of taxpayer money that Congress has approved. It’s a blatantly illegal order outside of the president’s constitutional authority. By calling for something so clearly not in his power, Trump is daring Congress to defend their power over the nation’s purse.
Trump’s dictatorial push has huge, real consequences for people all over the country.
What do trillions of dollars in federal grants touch? Programs that keep people fed, clothed, and educated—including in red states:
– Nutrition assistance for women and children
– Medicaid
– School meals
– Head start grants
– Housing vouchers
If a foreign body did this to our government and to our people, we would rightfully call it an attack.
Do not let this stand. Call your representatives today. | Posted on 29/Jan/2025 00:49:35
