Republicans want to give the Trump Administration unrestrained authority to strip tax-exempt status from any non-profit organization without due process, essentially giving them the power to shut down organizations they disagree with.
This is beyond dangerous.

While President Trump has pardoned those who forced officers to put themselves in harm's way on January 6, my Republican colleagues continue to stall the installation of a plaque commissioned to honor their sacrifice on that day.
These officers deserve better.
The unavoidable truth is that Republicans’ core priority with this legislation was to benefit the wealthy at the expense of everyone else, and that is exactly what their bill does.

7/7
Late-breaking distribution tables revealed that tens of millions of working Americans will see a tax INCREASE in 2029 under Republicans’ bill. They made provisions like addressing taxes on tips and overtime pay temporary, as opposed to the cuts for the richest 1%, which they made permanent. 6/
Republicans also rejected Democratic amendments to stop Trump’s trade war and stop attacks on American energy, effectively voting to sustain higher prices, destroy the American clean energy industry, and raise everyone’s electric bills in the process. 5/
At the same time, Republicans rejected Democratic amendments to protect Americans’ health care. As new, nonpartisan estimates show nearly 14 millions at risk of losing coverage from this legislation, Republicans voted against amendments to prevent these life-threatening cuts. 4/
They voted to protect an expansion of the estate tax, a tax cut that only benefits a small number of estates worth over $25 million, at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars. Republicans even rejected an amendment that would simply have blocked their tax cuts from benefitting billionaires. 3/
At every turn, Republicans voted down amendments designed to prevent the majority of benefits of their tax bill from flowing to rich people. They defeated amendments to close the carried interest loophole, and to resume pre-Trump tax rates for the highest income bracket. 2/
Today Republicans on the Ways and Means Committee advanced a bill to cut taxes for the rich while raising taxes for many working Americans.
Democrats fought for 17+ hours to protect Americans’ health care, lower costs, and support working people, while Republicans fought to protect the wealthy.
Update: Dr. Badar Khan Suri has been released.
This is great news for his family, his students, and all who support the First Amendment and due process. I congratulate Dr. Khan Suri and his legal team.
We must keep fighting Trump's abuses of the Constitution in these cases.
The administration’s treatment of Dr. Badar Khan Suri and the growing list of others like him has been nakedly authoritarian and is a gross betrayal of American values. This persecution of dissent must end. 4/4
The Trump Administration targeted Dr. Khan Suri to instill fear on American campuses by using draconian force on students and scholars who expressed dissenting views. Judge Giles said this release is necessary to end the chilling impact of this and related cases on free speech across the country. 3/
The Administration punished Dr. Khan Suri for exercising First Amendment rights, denied him due process, then whisked him to Texas to seek a favorable judicial venue to trample his rights and the Constitution. They failed to offer evidence of wrongdoing or legal justification for their actions. 2/
Huge news!
A taste of justice for Dr. Badar Khan Suri at last, hopefully the first of many. The administration must comply with this ruling with all possible haste.
I'm grateful that Dr. Khan Suri will be returned to his family as his case goes forward, and send my thanks to his legal team!
Republicans just advanced their tax cut for the wealthy in Ways and Means. Their bill sets millions of working people up for a tax INCREASE.
Dems fought for you, with 17 hours of amendments to support working families over billionaires.
We'll keep fighting on the House floor.
Every Republican just voted against my amendment to close the carried interest loophole. They're fighting for hedge fund managers and showing once again that Trump's promises to fight for regular people were empty.

It’s 3:30 AM in DC and @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social Democrats are STILL fighting the #GOPTaxScam. We offered amendments to remove the giveaways for those making $400K, $10M, $100M, and even $1 BILLION. Republicans blocked every single one.
This isn’t tax reform. It’s theft for the rich.
We just spent the entire 13th hour of the Ways and Means markup of Republicans’ tax cuts for the rich debating @gomez.house.gov’s amendment to remove tax cuts for billionaires from the GOP bill.
No one else would be affected, literally just billionaires.
And every Republican voted against it.
Every single Republican just voted against my amendment to block tax cuts for people who make over $100 MILLION per year. This is crazy:
Every Republican just voted against my amendment to block tax cuts for people who make over $100 million.
$100 million - ridiculously rich people, .002% of US households.
Republicans’ bill showers them with billions in tax cuts.
Every Republican voted to keep it that way.
