Trump’s Anti-Immigrant Bill: Establishing an Authoritarian Police State in America
The “Big Ugly Bill,” a 940-page piece of legislation, has been passed by the House and is headed to the White House. This bill will dramatically cut Medicaid and Food Stamps while providing tax cuts for the wealthy. It also establishes an anti-immigrant police state and will increase the national debt. Despite being unpopular with the majority of Americans and passing by a narrow margin, the bill’s passage was secured due to Trump’s control over the Republican party and fear of retribution from the former president and his supporters.
