One of Sen. Ernst's constituents points out that people are going to die if Republicans' cuts to Medicaid go through. Ernst's response?
"Well, we all are going to die."
Republicans know exactly what they are doing—all so billionaires can get another tax cut.

Wow, the House Republican tax bill would increase gas prices. By a lot. Up to 37¢ per gallon!
New numbers published by CAP show how ending clean energy investment props up demand for fossil fuels, raises prices, and makes households pay an extra $400b over the next decade to Big Oil and Gas.
