The recently enacted legislation referred to as the "Big Ugly Bill," associated with President Donald Trump and Republican lawmakers, is drawing criticism for its impact on American families. According to Democratic representatives, the bill cuts essential programs such as Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which many low-income and minority families rely on. These cuts coincide with rising costs in groceries, health care, and utilities, which are attributed to Trump's tariff policies. Lawmakers argue that while everyday Americans face higher expenses and reduced assistance, tax breaks for the wealthy and benefits for billionaires remain intact. The legislation is described as exacerbating financial strain on working families, particularly affecting Black children and families, as well as those struggling to afford basic necessities amid surging grocery prices.
