Sen. Murphy: Everyday the Trump Bill Hangs Out There, It Becomes Less Popular

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
WELKER: “Welcome back, joining me now, Democrat senator Chris Murphy. Thank you so much for being here as we noted, it is an incredibly busy weekend, I know you are running on fumes as are all the senators so we appreciate it, let’s start right there as I was just discussing with senator mullin, there are two Republicans who say no on this legislation, do you think there’s any chance a chance.”

MURPHY: “Every day this bill hangs out it becomes less popular, you notice must a 2 to 1 margin, it is going to represent the biggest transfer of wealth and money from the poor and the middle class to the rich in the history of the country. It’s not about efficiencies in Medicaid, the congressional budget office, nonpartisan said it is going to kick between 10 and 15 million people off their healthcare and for what, to be able to afford a new $270,000 tax cut for the richest families in the country. New tax cuts for corporations, new tax cuts for billionaires, this bill is an abomination, everybody who learns about it hates it, so there’s a chance that it will pass, and we are forcing them to read it because every single day people learn about it, they are flooding their members offices with calls to tell them to stop this bill. Nobody is asking for 16 million people to lose their healthcare just so corporations and the very rich can get a new tax cut, that is super unpopular and we are going to work this thing until the final vote.”
