People take the five day work week for granted, like it was always there. Enjoy your weekends? Thank a Union. That's just one of many things that management is dying to take away from laborers in all services and industries.

Because their leadership is corrupt, and they don't represent the values of their members.

They are redundant. All they do is make a few people who pretend to care about the workers very rich. The only people it helps are the union officers.

They're demands and expectations typically are aimed to benefit one segment of a workforce.

Unions have a very important place in history and should be proud of the *past* accomplishments. Attempting to bring up the past to justify poor performance and often unethical behavior should not be tolerated especially by union members.

They should support the president and the constituents who voted them in. That includes us who believe you work for what you get. No handouts!

The cuts didn't go deep enough. Ex. Musk's criticisms about how the EV mandates would be cut (good thing), but no cuts to the auto industry subsidies (bad thing). The liberal/socialist media is already lying to folks how this bill is throwing grandma under the bus. Proof? Look at the 'No' comments.

This is a good start and the best that could be passed. Don't let perfect be the enemy of great.

It is a wealth transfer Bill: From the poorest Americans to the richest.

Please don’t do that! Trump promised no cuts to Medicaid but her we are just 5months into his term and he is doing that!

Help for the rich to get richer and it puts more average people in worse situations. Don't cut Medicaid or Social Security

The only way they can make this look like it doesn’t completely destroy the deficit is by making certain tax cuts and spending increases “temporary.” I support the tax cuts, as long as they are met with subsequent spending cuts. The true burden of government is what it spends, not what it taxes.

We will vote every last Republican out of office. Stealing food and Healthcare from [anyone] to profit the rich is an act of war and shall be treated as such.

It would increase the national debt by about 3 trillion dollars, and take away necessary infrastructure, all while lowering taxes on the wealthy.

As a customer of the Affordable Care Act I find it appalling that the two senators from Missouri would even consider supporting this bill that will potentially triple my monthly premium and also cut benefits. They should be ashamed of themselves for bowing down to the President. Checks and balances

You are kidding, right? Missouri congressmen need to read their job descriptions and represent their constituents. Voting for this bill is a betrayal of the will of the people.

Millionaires and billionaires don't need a tax break as much some people need health care. Also, social security's fund needs fixed which would have been a better use for that $45 million he wasted on a parade. Trump has all his priorities wrong.

They were elected to represent their constituents, ALL CONSTITUENTS not just those whom they perceived voted for them. Don't let anyone hold their vote hostage.
