Nick LaLota’s New Budget: Tax Cuts for the Wealthy and Well-Connected and Efforts To Cut Social Security and Medicare (AGAIN)

Today, vulnerable New York Republican Nick LaLota’s Republican Study Committee held a press conference to introduce its extreme MAGA budget that would balloon the deficit and reward the ultra-wealthy while raising costs for millions of working-class Americans.

Chief among LaLota’s disastrous policies is a massive handout to billionaires and big corporations. His budget extends Donald Trump’s tax scam that benefits the ultra-rich with little to no benefit for small businesses or the middle-class and ballooned the deficit.

Additionally, LaLota’s budget would cut Social Security, privatize Medicare, leave millions of Americans without quality health care coverage, and continue relentless attacks on individual freedoms by supporting a nationwide abortion ban.

DCCC Spokesperson Ellie Dougherty:
“With this new budget, Nick LaLota has gone all in on Donald Trump’s extreme MAGA agenda. His role in this group proves LaLota has turned his back on Suffolk County and will do whatever the far-right fringe of his party tells him to, including decimating Social Security, privatizing Medicare and banning abortion nationwide.”
