House Republicans Deliver on the People’s Mandate
WASHINGTON — Today, Congressman Vern Buchanan, Vice Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, released the following statement after the House of Representatives passed President Trump’s “One Big, Beautiful Bill”:
“The One Big, Beautiful Bill Act is the definition of promises made and promises kept. House Republicans are delivering on the mandate of the American people by providing real relief, expanding opportunities and making the American Dream attainable for all. This bill offers permanent tax relief to families, workers and small businesses while funding the largest deportation effort of criminal aliens in history, unleashing American energy, bolstering our national defense posture and restoring economic prosperity.
“I’m proud to have helped lead efforts on the Ways and Means Committee to make the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent and increase the 199A small business deduction to 23% for 30 million small businesses across the country. Our bill includes my longtime priority to secure no tax on tips so workers can keep more of what they earn. We also eliminate taxes on overtime, increase the child tax credit for working families and provide an additional $4,000 for seniors living on a fixed income. This is a commonsense, pro-growth, pro-family, America First bill. We will not stop fighting until we get this bill across the finish line and to the President’s desk.”
Buchanan is a respected leader in Florida’s business community and has created thousands of jobs over the course of his career. He previously chaired both the Florida Chamber of Commerce and the Sarasota Chamber of Commerce and currently serves as Vice Chairman of the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee.
