If you read nothing else in this listing, be certain to read #18 as that will have by far, the biggest impact on America as a Nation!!!
Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN), the
chairman of the Republican Study Committee (RSC), released an exhaustive list
of some of the most radical aspects of the Democrats’ “socialist takeover
bill.”
The RSC noted the bill
would:
https://banks.house.gov/uploadedfiles/final_reconciliation_.pdf
1. Perpetuates
labor shortage. Continues welfare benefits without work
requirements for able-bodied adults without dependents at a time where
there are 10.1 million job openings—more openings than there are people looking
for work.
2. Commissions a
climate police. Democrats stuffed $8 billion into the bill to
commission a cabal of federally funded climate police called the Civilian Climate
Corps (CCC) who will conduct progressive activism on taxpayers’ dime.
*pages 8, 21, and 926 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=926
3. Pushes Green New
Deal in our public schools. Requires funding for school
construction be used largely on enrollment diversity and Green New Deal agenda
items.
*page 55 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=55
4. Pushes Green New
Deal in our universities. Democrats include a $10 billion
“environmental justice” higher education slush fund to indoctrinate college
students and advance Green New Deal policies.
*page 1 and 935 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1935
5. Forces
faith-based child care providers out. The bill blocks the
ability of many faith-based providers from participating in the childcare
system and will lead to many of their closures.
*page 280 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=280
6. Hurts small and
in-home daycares. Requires pre-K staff to have a college
degree.
*page 303 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=303
7. Includes new
incentives for illegal immigration. Illegal immigrants will be
eligible to take advantage of Democrats’ new ‘free’ college entitlement . .
.
*page 92 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=92
. . . as well as be eligible for
additional student aid . . .
*page 92 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=92
. . .
and the enhanced child tax
credit
*pages 1 and 1946 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1946
8. Includes
legislative hull for Biden’s vaccine mandate. Increases OSHA
penalties on businesses that fail to implement the mandate up to $700,000 per
violation and includes $2.6 billion in funding for the Department of Labor to
increase enforcement of these penalties.
*page 158 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=168
9. Gives unions
near-total control. The bill includes insane prohibitions that
would bind employers’ hands in union disputes and dangerously tilt the balance
of power, subjecting employers to penalties that exempt union bosses and
officials… among other things this bill would prevent employers from permanently
replacing striking workers. . . .
*page 175 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=175
It coerces businesses to meet
union boss demands by increasing Fair Labor Standards Act penalties by an
astronomical 900%
*page 168 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=168
10. Makes unions bigger
and more powerful. The bill would subsidize union dues that
would only serve to strengthen the influence of union bosses and not American
workers.
*page 2323 of
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2323
11. Pushes
Democrats’ wasteful and confusing school lunch agenda. $643
million for, among other things, “procuring…culturally appropriate foods”.
*page 333 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=333
12. Furthers
radical abortion agenda. Does not include the Hyde amendment and
would mandate taxpayers pay for abortions
*page 198 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=198
*page 336 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=336
13. Drives up costs
on Americans’ utility bills. Issues a punitive methane tax and
includes a tax on natural gas up to $1,500 per ton that could cost the American
economy up to $9.1 billion and cost 90,000 Americans their jobs.
14. Includes
dangerous & deadly green energy mandate. Effectively forces
Americans to get 40% of their energy from wind, solar and other unreliable
forms of energy within 8 years. Reliance on these energy sources
has proven deadly.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Texas_power_crisis
15. Includes
kickbacks for the Left’s green energy special interest network. $5
billion for “environmental and climate justice block grants” and another $100
billion in green energy special interest subsidies, loans and other carve outs.
* page 377 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=377
16. Gives wealthy
Americans tax credits. $222 billion in “green energy” tax
credits will be given to those who can afford expensive electric vehicles and
other “green” innovative products.
*page 1832 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1832
17. Furthers
Democrats’ social justice agenda. Includes “equity” initiatives
throughout the bill and, in one instance, Democrats inserted “equity” language
into a title which should have been focusing on the maintenance of the United
States’ cyber security efforts.
*page 897 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=897
18. Grants amnesty
for millions of illegal immigrants. House Democrats have included in
their reconciliation bill a plan to grant amnesty to around 8 million illegal
immigrants at a cost of around $100 billion over ten years that would largely
be spent on welfare and other entitlements. Trillions more would be spent
long term on their Social Security and Medicare.
*page 901 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=901
19. Opens border
even wider. The bill would waive many grounds for immigration
inadmissibility, including infection or lack of vaccination status during a
Pandemic, failure to attend removal proceedings in previous immigration cases,
and the previous renouncement of American citizenship. DHS may also waive
previous convictions for human trafficking, narcotics violations, and illegal
voting.
*page 903 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=903
20. Increases visa
limit. At least 226,000 family-preference visas would be
administered each year.
*page 905 of:
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/BU/BU00/20210925/114090/BILLS-117pih-BuildBackBetterAct.pdf#page=905
21. Grants
fast-tracked green cards for those seeking middle-class careers in America. Language
included in the bill exempts certain aliens from the annual green card
statutory limits and has been described as a “hidden pipeline” for U.S.
employers to flood more cheap foreign graduates into millions of middle-class
careers needed by American graduates”
*page 910 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=910
22. Includes pork
for Nancy Pelosi. $200 million is earmarked for the Presidio
Trust in Speaker Pelosi’s congressional district
*page 933 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=933
23. Increases
energy dependence on OPEC, Russia and China. The bill prohibits
several mineral and energy withdrawals.
*page 979 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=979
It overturns provisions included
in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that authorized energy production in the Arctic
that will result in 130,000 Americans losing their jobs and $440 billion in
lost federal revenue.
*page 983 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=983
. . . and the mineral withdrawals
it prohibits would, ironically, include minerals necessary for renewable energy
sources.
*page 934. 940, and 943 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=934
24. Exacerbates the
chip shortage. The bill would mandate the conversion of the
entire federal vehicle fleet from internal combustion engines to electric
engines at a time when there is a global microchip shortage and crippled supply
chains.
*page 1043 of:
25. Democrats’
feckless China bill is included. Concepts from the insanely
weak Endless Frontier Act included, including $11 billion in research
funding that will likely result in American intellectual property going to
China.
*page 1080 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1080
26. Chases green
energy pipe dreams. $264 million to the EPA to conduct research
with left-wing environmental justice groups on how to transition away from
fossil fuels.
*page 1063 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1063
27. Fixes “racist”
roads and bridges. Adds a nearly $4 billion slush fund that
would help left-wing grassroots organizations that, among other things, want to
tear down and rebuild or otherwise alter infrastructure deemed “racist”.
*page 1183 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1183
28. Punishes red
states for failing to adopt Green New Deal provisions. Mandates
“consequences” for conservative states that don’t meet the radical Left’s
“green” climate standards while at the same time adding nearly $4 billion for
“Community Climate Incentive Grants” for cooperating states.
*page 1179 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1179
29. Includes new
massive, bankrupting entitlement. The new paid leave entitlement
would mandate workers get 12 weeks of paid leave and would cost $500 billion
over ten years according to the CBO.
*page 1245 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1245
It would apply to those making up
to half a million dollars a year.
*page 1254 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1254
30. Advances a
totalitarian and paternalistic view of the federal government. Includes
grants for organizations to treat individuals suffering from “loneliness” and
“social isolation.”
31. Further
detaches individuals from employment and more reliant on government handouts.
The bill spends $835 billion on welfare through manipulating the tax code [not
including the expansions of Obamacare subsidies]
*page 1943 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=1943
32. Tax benefits
for the top 1%. The bill will possibly lift the SALT
deduction cap meaning many of the top 1% wealthiest Americans would pay less in
taxes.
33. Tax credit for
wealthy donors who give to woke universities. The bill creates a new
tax credit program that gives tax credits worth 40% of cash contribution that
are made to university research programs.
*page 2094 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2094
34. Expands worst
parts of Obamacare. Obamacare’s job-killing employer mandate will
become more severe by adjusting the definition of “affordable coverage” to mean
coverage that costs no more than 8.5 percent of income rather than current
law’s 9.5 percent of income.
*page 2041 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2041
35. Increases taxes
on Americans at every income level. $2 trillion in tax hikes
will fall on those making under $400,000 per year, contrary to what the White
House says. Individuals at all income levels will be affected.
36. Lowers wages
for working families. The corporate tax rate will increase by 5.5%,
meaning American companies will face one of the highest tax burdens in the
world. According to analysis two-thirds of this tax hike will fall on
lower- and middle-income taxpayers.
https://gop-waysandmeans.house.gov/analysis-biden-tax-hikes-hit-middle-class/
37. Penalizes
marriage. The bill would permanently double the EITC’s marriage
penalty on childless worker benefits
*page 2036 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2036
38. Imposes
crushing taxes on small business. Guts the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
small business deductions that reduced pass-through entity taxes to keep them
comparable to taxes imposed on corporations.
*page 2235 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2235
. . . as well as hammer small
businesses that file as individual tax earners with the 39.6% rate and
Obamacare’s 3.8% tax on net investment income.
*page 2221 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2221
39. Crushes family
businesses and farms. The bill would impose a 25% capital gains
rate . . .
*page 2226 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2226
. . . and makes alterations to
the Death Tax including cutting the Death Tax exemption in half.
*page 2240 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2240
40. Violates
Americans’ financial privacy. $80 billion slush fund to hire an
87,000-IRS-agent army to carry out the Biden administration’s plan to review
every account above a $600 balance or with more than $600 of transactions in a
year.
*page 2283 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2283
41. Increases out
of pocket costs for those who rely on prescription drugs. The
bill repeals the Trump-era Rebate Rule which passes through rebates directly to
consumers at the point of sale.
*page 2465 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2465
42. Imports
policies from countries with socialized medicine. The bill
includes healthcare policies imported from systems in Australia, Canada,
France, Germany, Japan and the United Kingdom—all countries that have
government-run healthcare systems
*Page 2349 of:
https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20210927/BILLS-117hr5376rh.pdf#page=2349
What's in the $3.5 trillion
reconciliation bill? Democrats are continuing to negotiate what will be
in the final draft of the legislation.
Each of these 42 bullets is
enough to vote against the bill. It’s mind-blowingly corrupt. We
need to loudly oppose it.
Democrats are scattered.
The Biden agenda is in question. It’s the perfect opportunity to build public
sentiment against this bill. The American people need us to be the vanguard
against the Left’s radical plans. It’s not an understatement to say this
bill, if passed, will fundamentally change our country forever—Americans will
wake up in a few years and wonder what happened to their freedom. We
can’t let that happen.
