Don Bacon Votes to Rip Away Health Care Access and Take Food Off of Nebraskans’ Tables

Bacon’s vote takes away health care coverage and food assistance from working parents, kids, seniors, and people with disabilities in Nebraska

Don Bacon and House Republicans just passed a far-right budget resolution that will rip away health care coverage and affordable food for millions of American families, all so they can fund massive tax breaks for their billionaire backers and wealthy corporations.

In NE-02 alone, this dangerous vote risks health care coverage for 41,000 people and food assistance for more than 23,000 households.

Despite the loud outcry of Americans across the country warning House Republicans like Bacon to vote against decimating Medicaid and threatening their livelihoods, Bacon still voted to pass this destructive budget scam, once again choosing his D.C. party bosses and billionaires over Nebraskans.

The DCCC will hold Don Bacon accountable for his support of this dangerous agenda to rip away health care and food access from Nebraska families. 

DCCC Spokesperson Justin Chermol:
“Don Bacon just sealed his political fate by inflicting this massive pain on Nebraska families, and no amount of his desperate lies will save them from the political fallout of this vote.”
