White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt opened her press briefing on Monday, championing the Trump-backed ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ as House Republicans prepare to pass the legislation later this week.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the House Budget Committee on Sunday night passed the Big Beautiful Bill budget reconciliation package, paving the way for a vote on the House floor this week.
President Trump has been the driving force behind the bill, urging Republicans to enact his 2017 tax cuts, as well as his no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and no tax on social security plan.
He responded to the Budget Committee’s passage of the bill shortly after midnight:
CONGRATULATIONS REPUBLICANS!!! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
Leavitt highlighted the bill’s passage through the House Budget Committee and the benefits to the American people on Monday and called on Congress to send it to the President’s desk “as soon as possible.”
“Send this legislation to his desk as soon as possible for his signature,” she demanded of House and Senate Republicans.
WATCH:
The one big beautiful bill passed the House Budget Committee last night, bringing it one step closer to final passage. The one big beautiful bill is perfectly named because it represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to deliver on the Make America Great Again agenda, responsible for President Trump’s landslide victory on November 5. The America First policies in this bill are the reason why Republicans currently have the majority in Congress right now.
Passing this bill is what voters sent Republicans to Washington to accomplish, and that’s why it’s essential that every Republican in the House and the Senate unites behind President Trump and passes this popular and essential legislative package. This bill will be the single most pro-Small Business, pro-family, and pro-American worker legislation ever. This bill will give Americans the largest tax cuts in our nation’s history. When Republicans pass the bill, Americans will be keeping more of their hard-earned money and taking home much bigger paychecks. The one big, beautiful bill will deliver some of President Trump’s central campaign promises: No tax on tips for our hard-working waiters, waitresses, and service workers. No tax on overtime for our law enforcement officers, our firefighters, and all those Americans who are putting in extra hours to make ends meet, and a large tax deduction on interest payments for Americans who purchase American-made cars.
Despite desperate Democrat lies, the biggest beneficiary of this tax cut will be working-class Americans and their families. Americans earning between $30,000 and $80,000 per year will pay about 15% less in taxes after this legislation is passed, and according to a brand new paper from the White House Council of Economic Advisers, the average family with two childrens’ take home pay will be up to $13,000 higher because of the increase in wages and reductions in tax obligations.
The CEA study also said that the average overtime worker receives a tax cut of roughly $2,000. Again, this is great news for our nurses, our police officers, and all those who work overtime to make ends meet across our country. Put simply, President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill will be a boon for working-class America. This One Big Beautiful Bill is also pro-family. It will increase the child tax credit to $2,500 per child, establish optional savings account for newborn babies with a $1,000 credit added, and strengthen paid family leave. This bill also delivers historic tax relief to America’s seniors by allowing middle and low-income Social Security recipients to deduct an additional $4,000 in payments from their taxable income.
If Democrats get their way, the Trump tax cuts are not extended. Americans will face the largest tax hike in history to the tune of $4 trillion. Republicans must not side with Democrats in helping them raise taxes. The one big, beautiful bill also provides critical protections of Medicaid, which will strengthen and preserve the program for decades to come through common-sense efforts to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse.
Medicaid will no longer be used to pay for barbaric gender mutilation procedures on minor children, and the 1.4 million illegal aliens who are currently improperly receiving medicaid benefits will be kicked off the program to preserve it for hard-working American citizens who need it. President Trump and Republicans are protecting Medicaid benefits for pregnant women, children, disabled individuals, low-income seniors, families, and the most vulnerable Americans in our society. And that’s what Democrats are so angry about: basic Medicaid protections that will stop the funding of transgender insanity and illegal aliens from ripping off American taxpayers.
As you all know, over his first four months in office, President Trump ended the previous administration’s open border crisis and secured our homeland in record time, all using executive authority. Now, Congress needs to act. The one big beautiful bill is the most significant investment in our nation’s Border Patrol and law enforcement agents in our nation’s history. The bill ensures that President Trump’s popular and successful border security measures are made permanent. Republicans have the backs of border patrol and ICE agents who were put through hell over the past four years and have quickly worked to secure our southern border, and that’s why this bill gives them more resources to do their jobs, including a $10,000 much needed bonus to ICE agents and border patrol agents over the next four years.
To provide those brave agents with desperately needed reinforcements on the ground, the bill allows for the hiring of thousands of new ICE personnel, Customs officers, and border patrol agents. These significant hirings will empower President Trump to continue delivering on his promise to carry out the largest mass deportation in the history of our country. Again, that is a promise that Republicans made to American voters, it’s a promise they were elected on, and it’s a promise Republicans on Capitol Hill need to keep: secure our border. To supplement those efforts, the bill funds— will fund the completion of President Trump’s signature border wall.
As a result, 701 miles of primary wall, 900 miles of river barrier, 629 miles of secondary barriers, and 141 miles of vehicle and pedestrian barriers will be constructed when this bill passes, along with cutting-edge technology to secure our homeland from dangerous, illegal alien invaders. This bill also advances our national security and defense interests by ensuring the United States military has the necessary resources to remain the strongest and most lethal fighting force in the world. The bill will provide resources for the construction of President Trump’s Golden Dome to safeguard Americans from potential attacks, give the Coast Guard resources to build more modernized ships, and the Air Force resources to acquire better planes.
If all of those incredible things were not enough, the big, beautiful bill also finally modernizes air traffic control in America, a bipartisan issue. The bill will allow President Trump to deliver on his promise to overhaul and update our air traffic control systems to keep Americans flying as safe and efficiently as possible. The previous administration failed to act and do this themselves, despite repeated warnings from the GAO, which has resulted in unacceptable delays at major airports like Newark that the Trump administration is working hard to address. When the One Big, Beautiful Bill passes, we will replace the current, antiquated system, the FAA will enhance safety in our skies, reduce delays, empower the future of air travel in the United States. That’s just some of what this historic legislation will accomplish.
It is absolutely essential that Republicans unite behind the one big, beautiful bill and deliver on President Trump’s agenda. There is no time to waste. Americans gave Republicans a once-in-a-generation opportunity to course correct our country over many wrongs over the past four years, and Americans are counting on Republicans to work as hard as President Trump is in this White House every day on Capitol Hill. Send this legislation to his desk as soon as possible for his signature.
