Bill > SR0064

This resolution condemns the Trump Administration and congressional Republicans' proposed "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," which would have significant negative impacts on Michigan residents and the broader U.S. population. The resolution highlights the bill's proposed cuts to critical social safety net programs like Medicaid (which covers 2.6 million Michiganders), the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program, arguing that these cuts would harm vulnerable populations including children, seniors, and people with disabilities. The resolution criticizes the bill for potentially adding $2.8 trillion to the national debt while providing tax cuts primarily benefiting wealthy individuals and corporations, and notes that the legislation would create additional obstacles for low-income families accessing tax credits. Additionally, the resolution argues that the bill would undermine clean energy initiatives, potentially raising household energy costs by approximately $110 annually and hindering progress on climate change mitigation. The resolution calls on Congress to reject the legislation and instead pursue policies that protect vulnerable communities, maintain social support programs, and ensure a more equitable tax system.
