Republicans are in support of dangerous cuts to Social Security and Medicaid that will screw over their constituents in order to pay for their billionaire tax cut. Empowered by their allies in Congress like Bill Huizenga (MI-04), Donald Trump and his supporters have led an aggressive effort to decimate Social Security’s workforce and infrastructure. These are cuts that target the core stability of this earned benefit American workers rely on.
“Huizenga has enabled cuts that will gut Social Security and Medicaid. He’s responsible for this, and while his voters are struggling to afford groceries and health care, they won’t forget Huizenga’s betrayal,” said American Bridge 21st Century spokesperson Nico Delgado.
Michiganders who depend on Social Security, Medicaid, and SNAP will suffer as a result:
- Approximately 170,887 of Huizenga’s constituents in Michigan’s 4th District rely on Social Security.
- Approximately 110,100 of Huizenga’s constituents in Michigan’s 4th District are covered by Medicaid or CHIP, and over 34,000 have used SNAP.
Huizenga has repeatedly advocated for making cuts to Medicaid and Social Security.
