“House Republican budget provides $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich but does nothing to lower costs for American families. It increases the deficit while inflicting pain on the most vulnerable, even as it raises the debt limit by $4 trillion. It demands spending cuts from all parts of the budget, promoting policies that will increase costs, boost unemployment, and hobble economic growth.”

• “This budget slashes at least $230 billion from food assistance programs.”

• “It cuts at least $880 billion from Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Impacting 72 million people who depend on Medicaid—including children, seniors, and individuals with disabilities.”

AI Source:  Some sources express concern that certain actions by the Republican party may erode democratic institutions and norms.

• According to the University of Michigan, studies suggest that support for violations of democratic norms may have been more prevalent among Republicans during the Trump era. 

Summary:  The Republican Party appears to work mainly for the plutocracy and not for all members of the US Democracy!
