RSC Members Applaud House Passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill

May 22, 2025

WASHINGTON, DC — Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, a landmark piece of legislation that cements President Trump's tax cuts while delivering on Republican promises to secure the border, unleash American energy, and cut fraud, waste, and abuse in the government. 

Following today's historic vote, Republican Study Committee (RSC) members celebrated its passage and impact on the American people:

“The House’s passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill is a major victory for the hardworking American people. This legislation delivers on the America First agenda by securing the border, unleashing American energy, cutting wasteful spending, and stopping the largest tax increase in our nation’s history. I’m also proud it removes suppressors from the National Firearms Act of 1934—a long-overdue win for law-abiding gun owners and our Second Amendment rights. This is a huge win and an important step toward getting our Nation back on the path to prosperity,”said RSC Vice Chair Ben Cline (VA-06). 

"The One Big Beautiful Bill Act delivers exactly that: the greatest single investment in border security and national defense; the largest tax cuts for families and small businesses; 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," said Rep. Jodey Arrington. “I urge my Senate colleagues to take up our balanced reconciliation package—and only consider changes that further strengthen our fiscal reforms—so we can quickly advance this One Big Beautiful Bill to the President’s desk and deliver on our promise to Make America Great Again,” said House Budget Committee Chairman Jodey Arrington (TX-19).

“Early this morning, House Republicans came together to pass a generationally important bill to not only reverse the damage of the Biden years, but to empower growth, economic expansion, and historic investment in America’s future as a manufacturing, energy-producing, freedom-loving superpower. The One Big Beautiful Bill delivers on the mandate the American people voted for by: cutting taxes for our working families and small businesses, responsibly reducing federal spending, revitalizing national security by securing the border and deporting criminal aliens, and making America the most attractive nation in which to grow or expand a business. This bill sets the stage for virtuous cycles of opportunity and prosperity to usher in the Golden Age of America,” said RSC Budget and Spending Task Force Chair Beth Van Duyne (TX-24). 

“The One, Big Beautiful Bill delivers on President Trump’s agenda to put American families first and set our nation on a path to prosperity. This legislation protects Ohioans from the largest tax hike in U.S. history, safeguards Medicaid for the most vulnerable in our communities, and unleashes the full potential of American energy. House Republicans remain united in our commitment to cutting government waste, investing in our nation’s future, and ensuring Americans keep more of their hard-earned paycheck,”said RSC HEAT Chair Troy Balderson (OH-12).

“Under President Trump’s leadership, Republicans are one step closer to enacting the generational change demanded by the American people. The One Big, Beautiful Bill will reset the direction of our great nation on behalf of hardworking Americans—not bureaucrats, special interests, or illegal immigrants. Republicans are taking bold action because the moment demands it. This bill is a win for the Fourth District, Missouri, and all of America. It’s a shame every single House Democrat voted for the largest tax increase in American history, open borders, and an uncertain financial future for Medicaid,” said RSC Communications Strategy Task Force Chair Mark Alford (MO-04).

“I'm proud to share that components of my signature legislative priority—the REINS Act—are included in H.R. 1, requiring congressional approval of major executive branch rules that increase federal spending. This will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to restore Article I power back to the legislative branch and stop the rampant regulatory regime from running wild. No language drains the swamp, empowers the people, or puts as much money back in their pockets as REINS. When many believed it couldn't be included in this historic legislation, we worked hard to find a viable path forward to secure these necessary reforms for Florida's Third and the American people," said RSC Emerging Technologies Task Force Chair Kat Cammack (FL-03).

“This bill is a strong conservative work product, and one that is long overdue. It delivers a historic spending reduction and roots out abuse of federal programs. These changes are a meaningful attempt to turn our fiscal house in the right direction,” said Rep. Dusty Johnson (SD-AL).

“Whether you have two college degrees, no degrees or you’re brown, black, or white, Trump’s tax cuts lifted all boats,” said Rep. Mike Collins. “I am proud to join my Republican Study Committee colleagues in preventing the largest tax increase in history, investing in domestic energy, securing the southern border, and getting rid of the waste, fraud, and abuse that has taken over Washington,” said Rep. Mike Collins (GA-10).

“I proudly voted YES on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, advancing President Trump's America First Agenda. This historic legislation permanently cuts taxes for South Carolina's hardworking families, strengthens border security, restores fiscal responsibility, enhances earned benefits, bolsters our military for peace through strength, and unleashes American energy dominance. South Carolinians and Americans nationwide demanded bold change, and this bill delivers. I thank President Trump and my colleagues for their efforts and urge the Senate to swiftly pass this bill to enact the America First Agenda our citizens overwhelmingly support,” said Rep. William Timmons (SC-04). 

“Republicans promised to secure the border, cut taxes, restore energy independence, and stop Washington’s waste, fraud, and abuse - and we delivered. Without action, Utah families faced major tax hikes, and our small businesses would have been crushed by overregulation. Extending the Trump Tax Cuts supports job creators and ensures hardworking Americans, especially our seniors, keep more of what they earn. We also delivered historic investments in border security, ended taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal immigrants, and ensured our military has the strength, tools, and support to deter threats and secure peace. The One Big Beautiful Bill puts our nation back on the right track. I look forward to continuing to deliver for Utahns and all Americans alongside President Trump, his administration, and my colleagues in Congress," said Rep. Burgess Owens (UT-04).

“It’s a great day in America. The One Big Beautiful Bill delivers the largest tax cut in American history, secures our homeland, unleashes American energy dominance, roots out waste, fraud, and abuse, and makes critical investments in our air traffic control system. House Republicans are moving full steam ahead to continue to deliver real wins for the American people. We’re only getting started,” said Rep. Troy Nehls (TX-22).

“This bill delivers major wins for the American people by protecting families and small businesses from the largest tax hike in history and by putting more money back into the pockets of seniors, parents, and workers. It also permanently secures the border, funds mass deportations, unleashes American energy, and modernizes our defense. While more work remains to rein in Washington spending, this legislation is an important step toward reversing the damage of Biden-era policies and restoring an America that is affordable, safe, and strong,” said Rep. Tom Tiffany (WI-07).

“The One Big Beautiful Bill is an opportunity to extend tax relief for Oklahomans, preventing them from facing a nearly $1200 tax hike next year. This legislation supports families, finishes President Trump’s border wall, and provides additional resources to further secure and safeguard our nation. While this process has been long, I appreciate all the thoughtful debate and will continue engaging with my colleagues as we move forward,” said Rep. Stephanie Bice (OK-05). 

“This is just the beginning. Passing the Big, Beautiful Bill proves Republicans can govern, crush illegal immigration, and deliver on the America First mandate for President Trump. Democrats should start taking notes,” said Rep. Randy Fine (FL-06).

"Early this morning, we passed the One Big, Beautiful Bill! This bill will deliver to the American people by securing our borders, extending tax cuts, and making our nation STRONGER than ever before," said Rep. Jeff Crank (CO-05).

"Today, I cast my vote for the America First agenda, empowering President Trump to lead our nation into a new golden age. While it's not perfect, this “Big Beautiful Bill” is an important step forward. It funds our border security, bringing in thousands more ICE agents, adding new detention beds, hiring immigration judges to streamline deportations, and completing a strong, secure border wall — fulfilling our promise to keep our communities safe and our country sovereign. It protects President Trump’s historic 2017 tax cuts, which sparked strong economic growth by fueling job creation and family incomes, increasing the child tax credit, and implementing new tax policies like “No Tax on Tips” and “No Tax on Overtime,” putting more money back in the pockets of hardworking Americans. This bill also has the heart of America at its core, investing billions into our great agriculture industry to ensure they can keep putting food on our tables. It emphasizes the importance and dignity of work by requiring able-bodied Americans to work in order to be eligible for Medicaid and food assistance. And, it also defunds Planned Parenthood and taxpayer-funded transgender surgeries in Medicaid…This bill is just the start of our mission to do government differently," said Rep. Mark Harris (NC-08). 

“This week, House Republicans voted to pass President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill. We are working to ensure that President Trump has the resources he needs to secure the border; make permanent tax breaks for Americans; and eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse,” said Rep. Michael Guest (MS-03).  

“The One, Big, Beautiful Bill delivers on the promises we made to the American people and puts working families, small businesses, and communities back at the center of our economic future. This legislation protects every American’s money. At its core, the One, Big, Beautiful Bill is about more than dollars and cents. It’s about liberty and empowering the American people; it’s about giving families, workers, and small businesses the freedom to thrive without government taking more of their money. The One, Big, Beautiful Bill expands opportunity, restores dignity in work, and strengthens the American Dream. That’s worth fighting for,”said Rep. Nathaniel Moran (TX-01).

"Today, House Republicans put America First and politics second and delivered real results. The passage of President Trump's One Big, Beautiful Bill delivers a victory for hardworking families by extending the Trump tax cuts, fully funding border security, lowering energy costs, and investing in new defense technologies. I’m proud to have fought for this bill and to help President Trump deliver on the mandate set by the American people last November,”said Rep. Barry Moore (AL-01). 

“The One, Big, Beautiful Bill that I debated on the House Floor and cast my vote for today will reduce taxes, secure our border, drive American energy independence, and boost take-home pay. This bill is about standing for working families, economic freedom, and common sense. I look forward to seeing the American Dream become attainable again for even more hard-working Americans with the passage of this historic bill,” said Rep. Chuck Edwards (NC-11).

“The American people sent a clear message: clean up Washington, secure the border, and put hardworking Americans first. Today, House Republicans delivered. We’re turning the page on bloated bureaucracy and failed policies of the past. We’re leading with strength, restoring accountability, and putting the American people back at the center of their government. I urge the Senate to act swiftly and help us implement President Trump’s agenda because the American people deserve nothing less,”said Rep. Randy Weber (TX-14).

"In November, Americans took President Trump up on his promise to secure the border, keep taxes low, and cut wasteful spending. Today, House Republicans delivered on that mandate with the passage of the Big, Beautiful Bill," said Rep. Lance Gooden (TX-05).

“Now that the work here is done, it’s time for the Senate to do its job. After long days of hard work, we’ve delivered real results for the American people. Rural communities in Colorado’s Third District will see historic tax relief that supports working families,” said Rep. Jeff Hurd (CO-03).

“Today, I was proud to vote in support of the One, Big, Beautiful Bill, which will cut rampant waste, fraud, and abuse in critical government programs so they are protected for vulnerable Americans who need them for generations to come. Republicans are the ones making the Trump tax cuts permanent, defending Medicaid, and protecting SNAP. Throughout this process, Democrats have made it clear that they support hiking taxes on American families, allowing fraud to run rampant in benefit programs, and cutting off aid to our hardworking farmers who put food on our tables. Passing this America-first bill was vital to our Nation’s future in both the long and short term, and I was pleased to help move it one step closer toward President Trump’s desk to be signed into law,” said Rep. Dave Taylor (OH-02).

"The One Big Beautiful Bill Act is the start of America’s return to fiscal sanity. This bill is the single best piece of legislation I have voted for when it comes to fixing our country’s fiscal future while serving in Washington, D.C. It will secure tax cuts on American vehicles, eliminate taxes on tips and overtime, and strengthen Medicaid for those who need it most. Amazingly, this bill also protects our country by funding the Golden Dome and securing our borders. President Trump demanded prosperity for the American people, and Congress delivered," said Rep. Marlin Stutzman (IN-03).
