In fact, you criticized your political opponents for failing to make the same promise. Not only have you broken that promise, you have waged an all-out assault on Medicaid,&rdquo;<\/span><\/b><span> escribieron los senadores. <b>&ldquo;Attempting to make up the trillion-dollar deficit created by your tax law on the backs of hard-working Americans would be a betrayal to all who consider these programs a lifeline. American workers who for decades have paid into Social Security and Medicare should not be forced to relinquish their health and retirement security to pay for your tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and largest corporations.&rdquo;<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"wordsection1\"><span>Despite Republican claims that their scam bill was a tax cut for working people, it has proven to be nothing more than a giveaway to corporations and the wealthy. It has also exploded the deficit &ndash; which Republicans have planned all along to use as their justification for cutting the benefits hard-working Americans have earned. Wyden.
