Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer made an attempt at renaming the Republican-led One Big Beautiful Bill on Wednesday, and the wave of backlash was almost immediate.
Schumer declared that President Donald Trump and Republicans were “lying” about what the bill would actually do — and claimed that a better name for it would be the “Well, We’re All Going To Die Act.” He then proceeded to argue that passing the bill would strip health care from 14 million Americans, cut 11 million people off from accessible food, and fund “tax cuts for billionaires on the backs of families.”

“Here’s the ‘We Are All Going To Die Act,'” Schumer read from his visual aid.
Critics quickly pointed out that if Americans died every time Democrats claimed that the passage of some Republican-led measure would kill them, most would have already been killed several times over.
“I’m already dead from Net Neutrality, climate change, sequestration, and building a wall,” one said.

“Doesn’t this act get old? Everyone was going to die if we repealed net neutrality. Passing a Georgia law that expanded voter access was going to bring back segregation. Passing tax cuts will kill everyone. Even the emotional value is gone because no one takes it seriously,” AG Hamilton posted.

“It really is like the Reason video when they mocked these clowns for saying ‘people will die’ anytime a Republican proposed anything,” another said, sharing the video.
“No one should ever – ever – take these people seriously ever again ever,” CNN Republican pundit Scott Jennings concluded.
