Republicans forced their budget bill through the House in a middle-of-the-night vote. It increases the deficit, it gives tax cuts to the wealthiest people in our country, taking food from the mouths of our children by cutting food stamps and by cutting the school lunch program, cuts back on the health care for the poorest children in America, and increases the cost of student loans for America's families who are striving for a better life for the next generation. It is not a statement of the values of the American people.
