President Donald Trump’s bill cleared the House of Representatives on Thursday morning in a 215 – 214 vote. One lawmaker voted present.
Trump wrote on Truth Social of the bill’s passage in the House, “’THE ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL’ has PASSED the House of Representatives! This is arguably the most significant piece of Legislation that will ever be signed in the History of our Country! The Bill includes MASSIVE Tax CUTS, No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, Tax Deductions when you purchase an American Made Vehicle, along with strong Border Security measures, Pay Raises for our ICE and Border Patrol Agents, Funding for the Golden Dome, ‘TRUMP Savings Accounts’ for newborn babies, and much more!”
“Great job by Speaker Mike Johnson, and the House Leadership, and thank you to every Republican who voted YES on this Historic Bill! Now, it’s time for our friends in the United States Senate to get to work, and send this Bill to my desk AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! There is no time to waste,” he wrote. “The Democrats have lost control of themselves, and are aimlessly wandering around, showing no confidence, grit, or determination. They have forgotten their landslide loss in the Presidential Election, and are warped in the past, hoping someday to revive Open Borders for the World’s criminals to be able to pour into our Country, men to be able to play in women’s sports, and transgender for everybody. They don’t realize that these things, and so many more like them, will NEVER AGAIN happen!”
House Speaker Mike Johnson said that it “quite literally is again Morning in America.”
“After four long years of President Biden’s failures, President Trump’s America first agenda is finally here, and we are advancing that today,” he said, adding that the legislation “will make all the difference in the daily lives of hard working Americans.”
“The Dallas waitress pulling overtime, the Detroit mom counting bills late at night, the Kentucky coal miner waiting on his second chance. These are the forgotten men and women of our country that we are all called here to serve and the one big, beautiful bill will deliver for those people,” Johnson continued. “It revives our economy. It will deliver historic tax relief. It will make the largest investment in our border security in a generation.”
