Thompson: One Big Beautiful Bill is a Game-Changer for America WASHINGTON, DC — House Committee on Agriculture Chairman Glenn "GT" Thompson (PA-15) released the following statement following the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill: "The One Big Beautiful Bill is a game-changer for America. "This historic legislation delivers the largest tax cut in American history, providing direct relief to working families and boosting take-home pay. It slashes wasteful Washington spending, eliminates red tape, and makes major investments in border security, energy independence, and national defense. It is the codification of President Trump’s campaign promises. "The One Big Beautiful Bill is a victory for rural America, making the largest investment in agriculture in decades, restoring integrity to SNAP, and saving millions of family farms from the death tax. This bill gives President Trump the tools he needs to keep America safe, strong, and free." TFI: One Big Beautiful
Opinion: Too many in Washington, D.C., think the answer to every problem is raising taxes on working families and wrapping small businesses in red tape. I disagree. The answer isn’t to make life harder for folks who are already forced to do more with less. That’s why I voted for the President Trump-backed One Big Beautiful Bill Act . This is a conservative plan that delivers real tax relief, reins in federal spending, and puts working families first. It provides funding to finish the border wall and hire thousands of new Border Patrol agents. It strengthens work requirements for healthy, working age SNAP and Medicaid beneficiaries to ensure benefits are preserved for those who truly need them, and it empowers families to keep more of what they earn. Unfortunately, if you listened only to the D.C. Democrats’ spin machine, you wouldn’t know all the good this bill will do and why President Trump fought so hard to sign it into law.

WASHINGTON, DC — Today, Congresswoman Nikki Budzinski (IL-13) released the following statement after voting NO on President Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill , H.R. 1. House Republicans voted to pass the bill and send it to President Trump’s desk to be signed into law. “Today, House Republicans officially pledged their loyalty to the billionaire class, delivering a profound betrayal to hardworking American families. From the very beginning, I have been clear about how devastating this bill is for our country — for single mothers relying on SNAP, for children dependent on Medicaid, and for everyone except the ultra-wealthy. It’s the working class who deserve tax relief — not billionaires. Democrats fought tirelessly to block this bill, but not enough Republicans were willing to defend their communities from these cuts. I will continue standing firm to protect my district and the American people as this administration turns its back on them.”
