The House Budget Committee has announced a Wednesday hearing called the Fiscal State of the Union.

Well be watching to see if House Republicans will finally come clean with the American people about their tax welfare for the rich and which cuts theyd impose on the middle class, including in red states.

Ironically, this Fiscal State of the Union comes after House Republicans have released proposals with gigantic tax giveaways to the super wealthy and big corporations that would add over $3 trillion to the deficit.

Also ironically, the hearing is being held in opposition to President Bidens Invest in America budget, which would cut the deficit by nearly $3 trillion over ten years thanks to cutting wasteful spending on rich special interests and having them finally pay their fair share.

President Bidens budget would continue two trends hes leading: bringing jobs back from overseas and making health care more affordable for families across the country.

Unfortunately, Republicans haveshownthey want to kill thousands of manufacturing jobs and cost millions of Americans their health coverage disproportionately in red states.

Before the actual State of the Union, President Biden pledged he would release his budget to the American people and called on Republicans to display the same transparency.

He honored his promise, but House Republicans have repeatedly delayed their budget while sending contradictory messages about whether they will even release one at all.

An exception is the House Freedom Caucus, which released a budget vision thatdoes not reduce the deficit and,by repealing the Inflation Reduction Acts climate investments, would be a windfall for China and killtens of thousands of manufacturing jobsPresident Biden iscreating in red states.

In the meantime, the House Republican Conference claims they will break with their long history of attempting to cut Medicare and Social Security benefits (which wellbelieve when we see).

But as David Leonhardt becomes the latest to point outthis morning, following those restraints would mean they need to make devastating cuts to the Affordable Care Act and to Medicaid, which would especially target Americans in red states.

So on Wednesday well be watching without holding our breath to see if House Republicans finally let their budget plan out of the shadows, and if that plan is in line with their proposals so far of exploding the deficit with tax welfare for the rich, killing manufacturing jobs in red states, and costing millions of their constituents their health care.
