Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) gave a new name to the “big, beautiful bill” on Wednesday, calling it the “Well, We’re All Going to Die Act.”
Schumer appeared at a press conference alongside Sens. Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and stood next to a sign that read “Well, We’re All Going to Die Act,” a reference to previous comments from Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa.)
“The more you look at the bill, at the House bill, the worse it gets,” Schumer said during the press conference.
The New York Democrat added later that “this bill is just tax breaks for the ultra wealthy, paid for by gutting health care for up to 16 million Americans.”
During a recent town hall in Butler, Iowa, Ernst defended spending reforms included in the "big, beautiful bill” passed by the House,
