The biggest struggle for Americans over the past four years has been inflation and rising costs. President Trump understood that Americans’ wallets were being hit by Biden’s extreme inflationary spending and your hard-earned dollars were being wasted by unelected bureaucrats in the federal government. That’s why President Trump promised that he would work to lower costs for everyday Americans if elected.
Since Day One, President Trump has been hard at work defending the best interests of the United States on every level. Now, it is time for Congress to step in and help President Trump get his “One, Big, Beautiful Bill” across the finish line. This bill would deliver what President Trump and Republicans promised and set America up for a future of prosperity.
The One, Big, Beautiful Bill would provide much needed relief to everyday Americans. It would stop the largest tax hike in U.S. history and make the 2017 Trump Tax Cuts permanent. This means that middle-class Americans would pay about 15% less in taxes and it will keep President Trump’s promises of No Tax on Tips and No Tax on Overtime. Take home pay for families would increase by roughly $13,000, the average overtime worker would get a tax cut of up to $1,750 a year, and it will deliver historic tax cuts for seniors on Social Security. This is truly the most pro-worker, pro-family, and pro-American bills presented before Congress.
Americans will benefit from this bill more than just financially. The One, Big, Beautiful Bill will permanently secure our border, unleash American energy, protect our national security, and restore common sense to the government. President Trump’s bill will also deliver the largest deficit reduction in nearly 30 years, $1.6 trillion in mandatory savings.
Who wouldn’t want a bill that would do all of this and set America up to be successful in the future? Democrats in Congress.
There is really no way the Democrats can defend opposing this bill, yet every single one in the House voted against it and every single one in the Senate has already committed to opposing it. They will try to tell you that Republicans are trying to make cuts to Medicaid, but that is a blatant lie. In fact, the One, Big, Beautiful Bill would remove 1.4 million illegal immigrants from taxpayer-funded healthcare which would ensure the Americans who actually need those services can receive them.
Republicans in the House of Representatives only passed this historic bill by one vote. That’s why 2026 will be such a pivotal year. With such slim margins in Congress, Republicans are going to need all the help they can get to advance not just President Trump’s agenda, but America’s Agenda. We must expand our Republican majorities in the House and Senate in 2026 to fulfil the promises of lowering prices, cutting taxes, and putting America First.
The One, Big, Beautiful Bill works to build a stronger economy, a stronger border, and a stronger America. President Trump and Republicans are delivering exactly what they promised and what voters put them in office to do. Let’s get it done.
Michael Whatley is Chairman of the Republican National Committee.
