Victory for America: One, Big Beautiful Bill Passes the House

by: Congressman Mark Alford (MO-04)

What’s Going on in Washington–This week, in the early hours of Thursday morning, House Republicans reached a monumental victory for the American people by passing President Trump’s “One, Big Beautiful Bill.”

This bill is a testament to our commitment to restoring fiscal responsibility, securing our borders, and reaffirming the values that make our country exceptional.

This legislation includes the following America-First wins:

It stops the largest tax increase in American history, ends taxes on tips and overtime, and provides relief for seniors, allowing hardworking Missourians to keep more of their hard-earned money.

Strengthens Medicaid for those who need it most by eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse, removing more than a million illegal immigrants from the program, and ensuring able-bodied adults with no dependents are pursuing work.

Permanently secures our southern border with funding for wall construction, new border agents, and additional security measures.

Strengthens and restores the integrity of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to ensure it is a temporary life vest for the needy, not a lifestyle.

Modernizes air traffic control, making our skies safer and air travel more efficient.

Boosts defense funding to ensure the U.S. military remains the most lethal on earth.

Ensures that not a single taxpayer dollar is used for gender transition surgeries on minors, protecting our children.

While the passage of this bill in the House is a significant achievement, our work is not done. As the legislation moves to the Senate, we must remain vigilant and continue to advocate for policies that serve the best interests of the American people.

Together, we are building a stronger and more prosperous America. I am proud to stand with President Trump and my colleagues in the House to deliver on our promises and uphold the values that make our nation truly great.
