Today, Congressman Rudy Yakym (IN-02) released a statement following the House of Representative’s passage of the “One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act:”
“Our “One, Big, Beautiful Bill” is the most pro-growth, pro-family, pro-worker, and pro-America legislation in a generation,” Rep. Yakym said. “It makes the Trump Tax Cuts permanent, puts more money in Americans’ pockets by eliminating taxes on tips and overtime, and delivers historic relief for working families. It secures the border, backs our law enforcement, unleashes American energy, and cuts wasteful Washington spending. This bill marks the first major step toward fulfilling the promises Republicans made in November and advancing President Trump’s America-First agenda.”
