House Speaker Mike Johnson is touting various provisions in President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” that he argues delivers on Republicans’ campaign promises to put Americans first.
House GOP leadership has gone to the mat to defend the House-passed version of the president’s sweeping tax and spending bill, which they argue makes historic investments in border security and contains the largest reduction to mandatory spending within a budget bill in American history. The president’s landmark bill is currently under consideration in the Senate as Republicans are hurrying to send the budget bill to the White House for signature by a July 4 deadline.
“President Trump and Congressional Republicans promised to put Americans first, and the One Big Beautiful Bill Act delivers,” Johnson told the Daily Caller News Foundation in an exclusive statement. “It’s been decades since Congress has crafted a piece of legislation that includes so many significant wins for the American people.”
“There are historic investments in border security and mass deportations, tax incentives to build, buy, and sell in America, and provisions to ensure illegals can’t receive taxpayer benefits,” Johnson added. “This bill has something for every American — and nothing for illegal aliens or foreign governments who have ripped off the American taxpayer for far too long.”
The House-passed One, Big Beautiful Bill Act enhances border security by funneling $150 billion into immigration enforcement and fast-tracking the president’s deportation agenda. This funding includes resources to hire up to 3,000 new Border Patrol agents and 5,000 new Office of Field Operations customs officers, according to information provided to the DCNF by House Majority Whip Tom Emmer’s office.
