I commend Nick LaLota and the other Republican members of the House of Representatives who held out against the “one big, beautiful bill” — but I would have a great deal more respect for them if they were holding out to protect those who need Medicaid and those who need Food Stamps.
There are so many people out here who are in desperate need of help — just talk to the staff at any of the food pantries. Making the poor shoulder tax cuts for the most wealthy is the opposite of the kind of community and country that I aspire to contribute to and live in.
