On the latest Rick Smith Show, Joe Hughes, Senior Analyst at the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP), breaks down how Trump’s “Big Ugly Nightmare Bill” overwhelmingly benefits the wealthy while leaving working-class families behind. Hughes explains that the bill extends massive tax cuts for the top 1%, while cutting critical programs that support workers and communities. Margaret Cooney, Senior Campaign Manager at the Center for American Progress, discusses the Trump administration’s cuts to NOAA’s budget, highlighting how these reductions undermined the agency’s ability to provide timely flood warnings contributing to the deadly impact of the recent Central Texas floods. Together, they expose how Trump’s policies prioritize corporate profits and tax breaks for the rich over the safety and economic security of everyday Americans.
