Budget Committee Members Champion the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in Op-Eds
WASHINGTON, D.C. – This month, Republican members of the House Budget Committee championed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act through a series of op-eds published nationwide. Members highlighted how this transformative legislation delivers the largest tax cuts for families and small businesses, the greatest single investment in border security and national defense, the most significant commitment to unlocking America’s energy resources, and the largest reduction in spending in the history of the United States by two-fold.
Chairman Jodey Arrington (R-Texas) and RSC Chairman August Pfluger (R-Texas) in The Hill:
"The House of Representatives has delivered on the American people’s mandate by passing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the most comprehensive and consequential set of conservative reforms in our nation’s history.
This transformative package includes record levels of tax cuts, spending reduction, and border and national security investment. The ball is now in the Senate’s court and their mission is simple: move the One Big Beautiful Bill to the president’s desk as soon as possible.
This legislation delivers a historic tax cut and $5,000 raise for the average American family to provide immediate relief to working households struggling after four years of economic mismanagement under the Biden administration. It permanently expands the 2017 Trump tax break for small businesses, the backbone of our economy, and enhances incentives for American companies to invest, grow and raise worker wages for decades to come."
Representative Jack Bergman (R-Mich.) in Detroit News:
"As a Marine and a commercial airline pilot, I’ve learned the difference between a crisis and a catastrophe. Speed and decisiveness can be the difference between failure and survival.
After the last four years of chaos in America under the Biden-Harris administration — from our overwhelmed southern border to reckless binge spending driving up our national debt — we are one bad decision, or one failure to act, away from catastrophe.
That’s why I supported the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which will deliver middle-class tax relief, secure our borders, bolster our defense, and restore the kind of fiscal responsibility that northern Michigan families have practiced for generations."
Representative Erin Houchin (R-Ind.) in Newsweek:
"Democrats have spent weeks fearmongering about so-called cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security in the One Big Beautiful Bill. Let's be clear: those talking points are false, and they know it.
What this bill actually does is protect and preserve these critical safety net programs for the people they were designed to serve—pregnant women, children, individuals with disabilities, and seniors. It does so by taking on the real problem: waste, fraud, and abuse that have run rampant in our federal health programs for decades.
The fact is, we are not cutting benefits for people who truly need them. We are ensuring that only those who are legal, eligible, and truly unable to work are receiving taxpayer-funded assistance. It is not compassionate to keep a broken system running. It is irresponsible and unsustainable."
Representative Addison McDowell (R-N.C.) in Real Clear Energy:
"The Biden administration left families in North Carolina and across the country feeling the squeeze at the gas pump, at the grocery store, and in every corner of the economy. Energy impacts nearly all facets of our economy, which is why the previous administration’s deliberate policy decision to focus on climate activism rather than economic reality was so harmful to working families.
We need a course correction. Republicans in the House of Representatives already took a historic step by passing One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which brings an end to the era of weaponizing the federal bureaucracy against American energy."
Representative Marlin Stutzman (R-Ind.) in the Journal Gazette:
"In Washington, it’s rare to see legislation that truly delivers for the American people. Not just in talking points, but in real, meaningful outcomes.
That is why I voted for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, a historic piece of legislation that marks a turning point in the fight to restore fiscal sanity and put working Americans first.
This bill, President Donald Trump’s foremost legislative priority, is exactly what Hoosiers have been waiting for. It speaks directly to the hardworking men and women of northeast Indiana and across the country who have spent years feeling as though Washington has forgotten them. Not anymore."
Representative Ben Cline (R-Va.) in Real Clear Politics:
"The American Dream is back in reach and our nation is back on the path to prosperity, security, and sanity, thanks to the actions of the House of Representatives last week. With the House’s passage of President Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill,” we’ve shown that it is possible to return common sense to our government, protect taxpayers, secure our borders, and chart a course for national Golden Age – all in one package.
It’s a declaration that the American people – not bureaucrats, radical liberal activists, or unelected judges – are in charge again. This bill delivers on the promises that President Trump and Republicans made to voters last fall."
