Indivisible Houston is protesting Donald Trump and the Republicans' new tax cut bill. They included the following language in their event call out.The #GOPTaxScam just robbed The People right in front of the watchful eyes of the world. By ramming a partisan package full of anti-poor provisions down the collective throats of the masses, 45 and his gang of congressional thugs have declared war on hardworking taxpayers and every single person who makes up the American social fabric, and we have had ENOUGH.
"We fight back as Congress seeks to reconcile its dueling versions of robbery and deliver a gift-wrapped heist to mega-corporations on the backs of working-class and middle-class families just in time for Christmas," said Daniel Cohen, President of Indivisible Houston. "Our Rally Against Robbery will include an extension of The Peoples Filibuster, an auctioning off of each of our individual Houston area Congressional reps to finance the programs they have attempted to cut, and a united front against the worst legislation to hit reconciliation committees in decades."

Please share this...EVERYONE! This is SOOOOOOO important. Franken would want us to stay focused too.
We are having an impact already and the GOP (Tax Scam) is scared shitless and is facing a lot of push back since the public knows their corrupt, rushed, secret Kindergarten scribble "rough" draft BS and they are trying to cover up the gaping errors throughout all 500 pages. Ryan and McConnell are getting the Roger Stone's out there to set up Franken and the RNC is supporting a PEDOPHILE all for the votes which we are flipping daily! Stay focused and FIGHT THEM TOOTH AND NAIL! Call, protest, spread the word on social media. IT IS WORKING!
