President Trump signed his One Big Beautiful Bill Act into law on Independence Day, just one day after Congress sent the massive tax and spending cut package to his desk.
Surrounded by congressional Republicans on the South Lawn during a military picnic at the White House, complete with a flyover of a B-2 stealth bomber and F-35 fighter jets, Mr. Trump signed the 940-page bill and then banged down the gavel that House Speaker Mike Johnson gave him that was used during the bill’s final passage Thursday afternoon.
The president called his centerpiece legislation “the most popular bill ever signed in the history of our country, whether you’re military or anybody else.”
He said the bill “will fuel massive economic growth and lift up the hard-working citizens who make this country run, like the factory workers, farmers, mechanics, waiters, waitresses, police officers, firefighters, coal miners, coal is back.”
