[OBupdates] FRIDAY: Day of Action to Stop the #GOPTaxScam

[OB Updates Announcement List]

*Republicans in the House and Senate are aiming to pass the Trump Tax Scam
ASAP.* But this fight is far from over. The Republican tax plan is the most
unpopular bill in 30 years. And I can see why — it’s straight-up class
warfare. *That’s why I’m asking you to join DSA’s national day of action to
Stop the #GOPTaxScam, this Friday 12/15!*

There’s so much you can do:

   - *Organize members to call in to radio shows.* You can use this NPC
   statement

   for talking points.
   - *Organize members to do sit-ins or traditional protests outside your
   Congress members' offices*. Make sure to send out a press release! You
   can look up your Representative here

The GOP says the tax plan will benefit working families and create new
jobs. But they’ve been preaching this trickle-down pseudo-gospel for 40
years, and it hasn’t worked yet. Here’s what’s really at stake:

   - Paul Ryan says Medicare is on the chopping block to pay for tax cuts
   for billionaires.
   - This bill harms working people fighting to keep the fruits of their
   labor. That’s why unions like the Communications Workers of America,
   National Nurses United, and the American Federation of Teachers stand
   against it.
   - Education, Social Security, and other programs working people need
   will be slashed to give the 1% huge tax cuts.

Working people are standing up to the capitalist class. Billionaires get
away with these attacks because they’re organized. That’s why we’re
organizing to fight the 1% and build a better future. You and I can work
for Medicare for All, build working class power through labor solidarity,
and fight for political power through electoral work.

But to do that, we need to stop this disastrous tax plan. *This Friday,
stand up to Stop the #GOPTaxScam!

In solidarity,
