JD Vance & House Republicans Think 17 Million People Losing Their Health Care is ‘Minutiae’

In a lame and heartless attempt to defend the Big, UGLY Bill, JD Vance dismisses millions of Americans losing Medicaid as insignificant

During his last minute push to pass the Big, Ugly Bill — which no one wants — JD Vance callously dismissed the harm the GOP Tax Scam would cause on everyday Americans as “minutiae” and “immaterial.”

Every single so-called moderate House Republican has already backed the largest attack on health care and food assistance in American history to deliver massive tax giveaways to billionaires and are poised to vote for it AGAIN, but now with even larger, unprecedented cuts to Medicaid and nutrition assistance than last month.

DCCC Spokesperson Viet Shelton:
“When JD Vance calls the millions of people who will lose their health care ‘minutiae’, it’s a reminder that he and House Republicans don’t care about working families, they only care about helping their billionaire donors. The millions of working families, seniors, and children their Big, Ugly Bill will harm are not minutiae, and the GOP Tax Scam will cost Republicans the House Majority.”
