Congressional Republicans MUST unite to pass President Donald J. Trump’s One, Big, Beautiful Bill and take advantage of the once-in-a-generation opportunity they were given by voters.

Here are 20 reasons why Congress must unite behind the One, Big, Beautiful Bill:

It delivers the largest tax cut in American history. This means an extra $5,000 in Americans’ pockets with a DOUBLE-DIGIT percent DECREASE to their tax bills. Americans earning between $30,000 and $80,000 will pay around 15% less in taxes.
It includes NO TAX ON TIPS and NO TAX ON OVERTIME. This makes good on two of President Trump’s cornerstone campaign promises and will benefit hardworking Americans where they need it the most — their paychecks.

It delivers Big, Beautiful Deportations. The bill permanently secures our borders by making the largest border security investment in history, funding at least one million annual removals of illegal immigrants and ramping up “mass deportation operations to a level never before seen in American history.”

It finishes President Trump’s border wall. As a result, 701 miles of primary wall, 900 miles of river barriers, 629 miles of secondary barriers, and 141 miles of vehicle and pedestrian barriers will be constructed — stopping deadly fentanyl from flowing into our communities and securing the border from dangerous illegal immigrant murderers and rapists.

It boosts Border Patrol and ICE agents on the frontlines. It empowers immigration authorities to carry out their mission by hiring 10,000 new ICE personnel, 5,000 new customs officers, and 3,000 new Border Patrol agents — and gives $10,000 bonuses in each of the next four years to agents on the frontlines.

It protects Medicaid for Americans by kicking 1.4 million illegals off the benefits. This bill eliminates waste, fraud, and abuse by ending benefits for at least 1.4 million illegal immigrants who are gaming the system.

It requires able-bodied Americans to work if they receive benefits. With 4.8 million able-bodied adults choosing not to work, The One, Big, Beautiful Bill puts work requirements in place and supports them as they find dignity through employment.

It reverses the spending curse plaguing Washington, D.C. The legislation delivers the largest deficit reduction in nearly 30 years, with $1.6 trillion in mandatory savings.

It ends taxpayer-funded sex change for minors. It reverses the Biden-era mandate that Medicaid cover so-called “gender transition” procedures for minors — ending the taxpayer-funded chemical castration and mutilation of American children.

It provides historic tax relief to Social Security recipients. It slashes taxes on seniors’ Social Security benefits.

It will give Americans PERMANENT tax relief through the Trump Tax Cuts. If the bill doesn’t pass, Americans will see the largest tax increase in history.

It finally modernizes air traffic control, fulfilling President Trump’s plan to completely overhaul the systems that keep Americans flying safely and efficiently. This will allow President Trump to update our air traffic control systems and act where the Biden Administration failed (despite repeated warnings).

It ends the taxpayer-funded Green New Scam. The legislation repeals or phases out every “green” corporate welfare subsidy in Democrats’ so-called “Inflation Reduction Act,” immediately stops credits from flowing to China and saves taxpayers $500+ billion every year, and reverses electric vehicle mandates that let radical climate activists set the standards for American energy.

It incentivizes MADE IN AMERICA. It rewards companies that build their products in America with lower taxes — and allows Americans who buy an American-made vehicle to fully deduct their auto loan interest.

It is pro-family. The One, Big, Beautiful Bill increases the child tax credit, establishes MAGA Accounts for newborns to start saving, and strengthens paid family leave.

It repeals Democrats’ insane attack on the gig economy. It repeals the requirement that Venmo, PayPal, and other gig transactions over $600 be reported to the IRS.

It protects family farmers. The bill prevents the greedy death tax from hitting two million family-owned farms who would otherwise see their exemptions cut in half and cuts taxes on farmers by over $10 billion.

It’s a once-in-a-generation chance to revolutionize our nation’s defense capabilities and protect the homeland against new threats. It funds President Trump’s Golden Dome, invests in American shipbuilding, and modernizes our military.

It unleashes American energy dominance. The legislation increases onshore and offshore oil and gas leases, which provides certainty for energy producers, spurs job growth, and makes energy more affordable for American consumers.

It boosts American mineral development. This bill increases mining of domestic minerals and makes America less dependent on foreign adversaries for critical minerals.

Massive disappointment.

No cuts, spending increases. Debt continues to climb.

NOT big or beautiful, big and bullshit is more like.

For me, DOA. Trumps talks a good game, this shows what reality is like. I voted for him twice, hence the big disappointment.

I agree. It is an omnibus 6 months early, and with another name. It is rubbish, and increases the spending.

You put it about right, NOT big or beautiful, big and bullshit is more like.

With all its deficiencies, overspending and misplaced spending it is, nevertheless, all we got. There is only one man who can navigate us out of existential fiscal ruin and that is Donald Trump. No one else can.

We have to support this bill because there's no other way, no other bill, no other chance.

One major disappointment for me and millions of senior citizens is the lack of Trump’s campaign promise to cut taxes on SS benefits.

will the bill at least eliminate income taxation of retirement benefits, or will it only do so for “poor people” (like a Democrap progressive bill), or will it only do so for one kind of pension and not others, or will it do nothing at all?

will the bill at least eliminate the “SALT” tax deduction LIMITATION, or will it only do so for “poor people” (like a Democrap socialist bill), or will it do nothing at all?

Will the bill reduce the income tax rates for everybody, or will it only do so for “poor people” (like a Democrap communistic bill), or will it do nothing at all?

The headlines are very favorable, but experience teaches that we need to watch Congress like HAWKS because they’re a bunch of lying weasels, most of them anyway including several of the socalled RINO trash

The “headlines” are very favorable

Like Reagan—tax cuts brought more employment, which brought more taxes collected.

The problem is all the talk of “over ten years”.

There won’t be ten years if we are paying 8% on $38Trillion in national debt by about 2027.

Besides all of which, this won’t get through the Senate.

> No cuts, spending increases. Debt continues to climb. <

Right you are. I am also very much against point #2: NO TAX ON TIPS and NO TAX ON OVERTIME.

Person A makes $5000 on tips.
Person B makes $5000 on overtime.
Person C makes $5000 running a part-time business.

All else being equal, shouldn’t all three pay the same amount in taxes? Not with this bill. Persons A and B get special privileges. Person C is the pigeon.

This is a great list of benefits to passing this bill. I normally agree with my representative, Chip Roy, 100% but I cannot do so here. I do understand his motives in wanting bigger deficit reduction (I want that also ), but he has not absorbed the lesson that “the perfect is the enemy of the good.“ No, this is not a perfect bill, but I have never seen one in my life. You are dealing with dozens of different lobbies, and at least three or four different factions in each party, so you’re never going to have a bill that anybody believes is perfect. But Chip Roy doesn’t seem to understand that if this doesn’t get passed, then Trump and the Republicans will have no big accomplishment to crow about before the 2026 election. Then we are facing losing control of one or both houses in that election. Would that be a better result than compromising a little bit on deficit reduction, especially given the many other benefits that it provides? Would making President Trump a lame duck less than six months into his term be a better result than deficit reduction in the amount that Chip Roy likes? I don’t think so, not by a longshot.

Chip Roy, please vote for this bill.

Sometimes you’ve got to walk a batter to get a double play. I have no idea where we will be fiscally in 4 years or 40, but Trump failing, Republicans failing now, does not seem like the right move.

Knowing that we are not dealing with idiots or people with low IQ either here or in Congress, sadly, I believe this is their real motive.

Yes and energy and deregulation. Pass it. Let’s see what the results of entire Trump administration and Republicans are in 2 years. How many ticks get pulled off the dog.

Despite what Democrats say, Trump is not a dictator.

If he were, this might not be a bill which stinks so badly.

Sadly, I think this is the best he can do.

Face the facts, the majority of congressional Republicans belong to the Republican wing of the uniparty which is synonymous with SWAMP.

I sympathize with the Republicans against the bill, but they are ideologues not leaders.

If the Republicans opposed to this bill were leaders, then they would have a majority sharing their position.

Those opposed have a lot of tenure and they got no following.

That is my problem with Rand Paul.

He has spent a lot of time in holding office in the Republican party but he has not been able to get others in the party to follow his lead.

The ideologues would rather win the debate than accomplish anything.
