How much do the federal government cuts really matter in my everyday life?
It could be that you suddenly need to find private home insurance in a flood zone, or your child’s daycare center closes. You could lose your health insurance, or you could keep it but your local hospital might close. There might be changes in your overtime pay, or your city park might stop being maintained. What the Cuts Cut explores the many ways in which the Trump administration’s funding cuts and policy changes impact Americans of all backgrounds and in every aspect of our lives.
What if fire season starts, and we aren’t ready? When is that bridge going to be repaired? Do I need to get vaccinated this year? What if I can’t afford childcare, even with my full time job? What if my electric bill just keeps going up? What if my kid gets bullied at school? What if I don’t get my overtime pay? What if they build a data center in town? What if they never finish replacing those old water pipes? Is my pension safe and guaranteed? Is my state in charge of its own environmental rules?
