<p>Republicans in Congress must come together and pass President Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;one big, beautiful bill&#8221; to deliver the &#8220;Make America Great Again&#8221; agenda endorsed by voters, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Monday.</p>
<p>During a White House press briefing, Leavitt put lawmakers on notice as some of the GOP rank-and-file continue to quibble about spending cuts and certain provisions in the legislation, which <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trumps-one-big-beautiful-bill-clears-hurdle-in-second-attempt-of-key-vote" target="_blank" rel="noopener">advanced</a> out of the House Budget Committee late Sunday night and could reach a final vote in the lower chamber within the next week. With a slim House majority and near-certain Democrat opposition, Republicans can likely afford only a few defectors to send the bill to the Senate.</p>
<p>&#8220;The &#8216;one big, beautiful bill&#8217; is perfectly named, because it represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to deliver on the &#8216;Make America Great Again&#8217; agenda responsible for President Trump’s landslide victory on November 5th. The &#8216;America First&#8217; policies in this bill are the reason why Republicans currently have the majority in Congress right now,&#8221; Leavitt said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Passing this bill is what voters sent Republicans to Washington to accomplish,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;And that’s why it is essential that every Republican in the House and Senate unites behind President Trump and passes this popular and essential legislative package.&#8221;</p>

<p>The bill is processing through Congress via the reconciliation process, aiming to provide funding for Trump’s domestic priorities, retain the 2017 tax cuts, raise the debt limit, and more.</p>
<p>One claim Democrats have made against the legislation is that it benefits the wealthy, but if they &#8220;get their way&#8221; and the 2017 tax cuts are not extended through the bill, Americans will face the &#8220;largest tax hike in history to the tune of $4 trillion,&#8221; Leavitt said. &#8220;Republicans must not side with Democrats in helping them raise taxes.&#8221;</p>
<p>The bill actually gives Americans the biggest tax cuts in U.S. history, Leavitt argued. Key areas she highlighted included eliminating taxes on tips for service workers, removing taxes on overtime pay for essential workers such as police and nurses, and offering a significant tax deduction for interest payments on loans for American-made cars.</p>
<p>Leavitt said the bill boosts the Child Tax Credit to $2,500 per child, establishes optional $1,000 savings accounts for newborns, fortifies paid family leave, provides tax relief for middle- and low-income Social Security recipients by allowing an additional $4,000 deduction on payments from their taxable income, and permits Americans earning between $30,000 and $80,000 to pay around 15% less in taxes. Leavitt noted there is a new White House Council of Economic Advisers study projecting families with two children will see their take-home pay rise up to $13,000 because of increased wages and reduced tax obligations, plus the average overtime worker receives a tax cut of roughly $2,000, if the legislation passes.</p>
<p>&#8220;This bill will be the single most pro-small business, pro-family, and pro-American worker legislation ever,&#8221; Leavitt said.</p>
<p>Another major attack line from the Democrats is that the legislation forces millions to lose health care coverage, under Medicaid in particular. However, according to Leavitt, the bill reforms Medicaid by eliminating coverage for &#8220;barbaric gender mutilation procedures on minor children&#8221; and removing 1.4 million undocumented immigrants from the program, a move that would &#8220;preserve it for hardworking American citizens.&#8221;</p>
<p>Leavitt further contended that the bill strengthens border security beyond what Trump has done himself through executive actions, funding the completion of the border wall, hiring thousands of new ICE and Border Patrol agents, and providing $10,000 bonuses to existing agents over four years. It also helps Trump fulfill his &#8220;promise to carry out the largest mass deportation in the history of our country,&#8221; she said. Leavitt said the bill enhances national defense through resources for a modernized military, including the construction of the &#8220;Golden Dome&#8221; defense system. And Leavitt stressed that the bill modernizes the nation’s air traffic control system to reduce delays and enhance safety, addressing long-standing bipartisan concerns.</p>
<p>&#8220;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,&#8221; Leavitt said. &#8220;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.&#8221;</p>
