The economy should work for everyone—not just the wealthy. For too long, we've seen policies that prioritize corporate profits over people's well-being. At Groundwork, we believe it's time that the economy works for all of us.

Guess who pays for tax cuts for the rich? You do. Through cuts to Medicaid, higher health premiums, and skyrocketing housing costs, working families will foot the bill for the GOP's tax giveaways to the ultra-wealthy.

People voted for lowering grocery prices and protecting Medicare. They are, in fact, NOT getting what they voted for. As for Elon, he wasn’t on any ballot.

The GOP plans to fund tax breaks for the rich with your health care. That's not only economically disastrous – it's deeply unpopular. Our new poll with @theSBPC by @DataProgress found that 87% of people don't want to defund Medicaid – in fact, many want more funding.
The values shown in the Republicans' budget are a betrayal of the middle class and the most vulnerable among us--strips Medicaid, which currently insures more than 70M Americans, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) which 10M American children depend on.

Trump and Musk are gutting the CFPB—an agency that’s put billions back in Americans' wallets and protects them from financial scams. It's just another example of how this administration is prioritizing billionaires and corporate donors over lowering costs for Americans.
The CFPB oversees auto lending and mobile payment apps — two areas that Elon Musk has business interests in. DOGE's gutting of the agency is no coincidence. With a defanged CFPB, corporations will have a far easier time picking your pocket.

Americans might not always see eye to eye, but one thing’s clear: Nearly every voter—across party lines—wants to protect Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and SNAP. Meanwhile, the GOP is pushing to gut them for even more tax breaks for the wealthy.

🎯 "What House Republicans and the Trump-Musk administration want to do is look into your kid's lunch money, your kids' teacher's salary, your grandparent's Social Security—they want to take that money and give it out in billionaire tax cuts."
How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

The CFPB has returned more than $21 billion to consumers since it was founded. Turning the clock back to 2010 is bad news for consumers & good news for corporations looking to squeeze an extra buck. @owenslindsay1 on @Marketplace

Musk controls the system that pays Social Security, Medicare, tax refunds, and more—he wants to cut these programs to pay for HIS tax break. DOGE is a power grab by the world's richest man and a direct threat to the financial security of Americans. @owenslindsay1 @BernieSanders
Elon Musk is planning to pay for his tax cut with your health care. Donald Trump and his Republican friends want $5 trillion in tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations, paid for by huge cuts in Medicaid and other programs that working families desperately need.

Musk's motive to shut down CFPB is pretty clear: Grease the skids for his new venture into payment processing through X. He's already got a deal with Visa to make it happen. Now he's getting CFPB out of the way. More from @owenslindsay1's conversation with @MSNBC's @AlexWitt:

Voters across party lines oppose tax breaks for the richest households and big corporations. Let's be clear: Republican lawmakers supporting Trump’s tax plans are turning their backs on working Americans. ➡️ @theSBPC @DataProgress
