‘Samosa Caucus’ in America unites to oppose Trump’s ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’

All six Indian-American lawmakers in the United States House of Representatives opposed US President Donald Trump's controversial new budget bill, which passed on Thursday.
Representatives Ro Khanna, Ami Bera, Pramila Jayapal, Raja Krishnamoorthi, Suhas Subramanyam and Shri Thanedar - colloquially known as the Samosa Caucus - attacked the bill for stripping ordinary Americans of health insurance and transferring wealth to the richest in American society.
“I drove 14 hours from Illinois to Washington to fight this cruel and reckless bill because the stakes are too high not to fight. Donald Trump's budget — what I call his ‘Large Lousy Law’ — rips health care from millions, spikes costs for working families, and hands out massive tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy. It’s a moral failure — punishing those trying to make it while rewarding those who already have it made.
“I will never stop fighting to protect the people of Illinois from this kind of betrayal.” said Raja Krishnamoorthi, who has represented Illinois’ 8th Congressional district since 2017.
