'Work until you drop dead': GOP's proposed budget takes ax to Social Security, healthcare

By David Badash, The New Civil Rights Movement
Published March 21, 2024 1:44 PM ET

The Republican Study Committee has released its proposed 2025 budget which would take an ax to major elements of the social safety net, healthcare system, and civil rights, while affecting nearly every American, either now or in the future.

Calling it "Fiscal Sanity to Save America," the budget proposal from the far-right MAGA-affiliated group of about 170 House Republicans would effectively create a national abortion ban and ban on in-vitro fertilization procedures (IVF) by creating legal protections for human embryos starting at “the moment of fertilization.” It mentions the word "abortion" 77 times.

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is a member and former chairman of the Republican Study Committee.
