“The most important thing in politics in America is honoring the promises that you make to the American people...that sacred trust between the voter and the man they elect.” — Stephen Miller
That statement, delivered during a June 5, 2025 White House discussion on President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill, captured the essence of what this legislation represents. Joined by senior White House officials Taylor Budowich, Russ Vought, and James Braid, Miller helped unveil a bill that transforms the promises of the campaign trail into binding law. It is a MAGA rally condensed into legislation.
This is not a spending bill. It is not a budget. It is a surgical, reconciliation-only package crafted to bypass the filibuster and deliver immediate, high-impact reforms on taxes, immigration, energy, and welfare. All of this will be done without raising spending or expanding bureaucracy. Despite predictable media distortions, the facts speak for themselves: this is the most pro-American, pro-worker, and fiscally responsible package to come out of Washington in a generation.
Here are seven reasons why every American should support this historic piece of legislation.
1. This is not a spending bill. It’s essential reconciliation:
As Russ Vought emphasized, this legislation is not funding the bureaucracy that remains subject to appropriations. Instead, it's a reconciliation bill designed to lock in critical reforms and campaign commitments while avoiding the Senate filibuster. It tackles mandatory spending and tax measures (what the American people care about most) without increasing discretionary outlays.
2. It doesn’t raise spending. It rescues taxpayers and trims government:
The bill cuts net mandatory spending by about $1.6–1.7 trillion over 10 years through welfare reforms like Medicaid work requirements and tightened eligibility. These savings are used to fund tax relief, not to expand government .
3. It doesn’t raise taxes. In stead, it upholds Trump's 2017 tax cuts permanently:
This legislation codifies the tax cuts introduced in 2017: no tax on tips, overtime, social security, full interest deductibility for American-made car loans, and a better child tax credit. This represents the largest working- and middle-class tax cut package ever proposed, with estimates of a $13,000 average take-home pay boost per typical family.
4. It's economically pro-growth and anti-inflation:
Miller and Vought both highlight that by eliminating regulations and unleashing American energy, this bill fights inflation and lowers costs across the board in heating, fuel, electricity, and beyond. Meanwhile, work incentives (no tax on tips, overtime deductions) help more Americans earn more.
5. It enforces border security without causing debt:
This bill provides full, upfront funding for the border wall, ICE, and CBP, paid for by increasing visa and immigration fees so the money doesn’t come out of the taxpayer’s pocket
6. CBO scores (don’t be fooled by baselines):
Critics rely on the CBO’s “current-law baseline,” which assumes existing tax cuts expire automatically, inflating deficit projections. White House experts argue for a “current-policy baseline”, reflecting realistic continuation of policies. According to Vought and Miller, under that baseline, the bill reduces the deficit by approximately $1 trillion, thanks to spending cuts and economic growth, not tax increases.
7. Misunderstandings about Medicaid cuts are overblown:
This bill does not remove “granny’s” Medicaid. Instead, it tightens work, verification, and participation requirements to root out fraud and refocus direct benefits on those truly in need, building on bipartisan reforms from the 1990s .
BONUS. Discretionary spending cuts are coming (but in the right vehicle):
Discretionary programs (like Education, USAID, NPR) must be cut via separate rescission bills or annual appropriations. That is underway such that hundreds of billions in planned cuts are flowing through those channels, not through this reconciliation package.
In the end...
✅ Not a bloated spending bill: actually cuts mandatory spending.
✅ No new taxes: solidifies and expands tax relief focused on working families.
✅ Inflation-buster: by deregulating and promoting domestic energy.
✅ Border-first: front-loaded funding paid by non-tax sources.
✅ Responsible budgeting: addresses deficits through real cuts, not gimmicks.
This is legislative MAGA in motion delivering on promises, empowering taxpayers, and enforcing fiscal responsibility. If we allow skeptics to mislabel it as “spending” or “reckless,” we risk losing a once-in-a-generation chance to reshape government and economy in favor of everyday Americans.
Let’s call out the confusion, reject the scare tactics, and stand behind a bill that honors the trust of voters, keeps the campaign pledges intact, and secures our nation’s future prosperity.
Center-left and mainstream voices may spin misleading headlines, but the facts are clear: this bill cuts spending, cuts taxes, and cuts big government. That’s why it deserves our backing.
