A Historic Victory for a “Big, Beautiful Bill”
In a major legislative victory for the Trump administration, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the “One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act” on Thursday, July 3, 2025, after a bruising and contentious debate. The massive bill, a cornerstone of the President’s second-term agenda, passed by a razor-thin 218-214 margin and now heads to the White House to be signed into law.
President Trump celebrated the passage as a “declaration of independence from a national decline” and announced he will sign the bill into law during a special ceremony on the Fourth of July. The bill, which already narrowly passed the Senate with a tie-breaking vote from Vice President JD Vance, aims to make the 2017 tax cuts permanent, bolster border security, and unleash American energy.
A Pro-Growth, Pro-Worker Agenda
Supporters have hailed the bill as a transformative package that will jumpstart the economy. Key provisions include a permanent extension of the Trump tax cuts, a new measure to make the first $25,000 of tipped income tax-free, and billions in new funding for border infrastructure and enforcement.
“Our Country is going to explode with Massive Growth,” Trump said in a statement. He argued that the bill “sets the United States down a fiscal path by greatly reducing our Federal Deficit, and setting us on course for enormous Prosperity in the new and wonderful Golden Age of America.”
Democrats’ “Big, Ugly” Opposition
The bill’s passage came over the unified and vehement opposition of Democrats, who have slammed it as a fiscally irresponsible giveaway to corporations that will be paid for by gutting social programs. “Republicans are trying to jam this one big, ugly bill down the throats of the American people,” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said, according to The New American.
Democrats have pointed to a Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report projecting the bill will add nearly $3.9 trillion to the national debt over the next decade. They have also blasted the bill’s significant cuts to Medicaid and other healthcare programs. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called the legislation a “Republican betrayal,” as reported by NPR. The bill has also drawn criticism from billionaire Elon Musk, who has threatened to start a new political party in opposition to what he calls fiscally reckless legislation.
