Democratic strategists are attempting to make House Republicans pay a political price for backing President Donald Trump’s “one big, beautiful bill” Thursday, although GOP groups suggest that voters will reject their “fearmongering.”
House Majority Forward (HMF), the nonprofit arm of a House Democratic leadership-aligned super PAC, announced a series of ads Wednesday targeting 26 House Republicans in battleground districts for voting to reform Medicaid as part of the president’s landmark bill, which enacts more than $1.6 trillion in spending cuts over a ten-year period. The ad blitz, first reported by NOTUS, comes as House Republicans’ campaign arm is urging GOP lawmakers to tout the benefits of the House-passed bill and defend “common-sense reforms” to Medicaid, such as barring illegal migrants from receiving coverage under the program at the state level.
Despite Americans appearing to approve of key sections of the bill, Democrats are seeking to make GOP lawmakers suffer political consequences for allegedly cutting benefits, which Republicans have dubbed outright “fearmongering.”
“The ads —’Big Ugly Bill’ — highlight votes taken by House Republicans to raise grocery prices and cut health care in order to bankroll tax giveaways for the ultra-rich, urging constituents to call on their Members of Congress to stop the bill now,” a HMF release announcing the ad campaign geared toward top Republican targets said.
