The CBO estimates that the 10% of poorest Americans will lose roughly $1,200 a year as they experience restrictions on government programs like Medicaid and food assistance, while the richest 10% of Americans will see their income increase by $13,600 from tax cuts."
'This really is a big, beautiful bill for billionaires, but for the poor and the working class in this country, you are actually poorer," said Rep. Brendan Boyle, the top Democrat on the House Budget Committee, in an MSNBC interview on Monday."

I see that our Trumpers don't want to talk about their own CBO Report.
Which shows exactly what Dems said it would... Billionaire Tax Cuts much more important than middle class tax cuts, and the poor paying for all of it.
