One Big Beautiful Bill Act
What does the One Big Beautiful Bill Act do?
HR 1 is a House bill sponsored by Rep. Jodey Arrington (R-TX). The One Big Beautiful Bill permanently extends the 2017 Trump-era tax cuts, adds new deductions for tips and overtime pay, tightens eligibility for SNAP food assistance and Medicaid, funds more than $109.7B in new border security and immigration enforcement, and rescinds most of the Inflation Reduction Act's climate and clean energy spending. It also raises the federal debt ceiling by $5 trillion to finance the combined cost. Makes the 2017 Trump tax cuts permanent, creates tip and overtime deductions, funds a $109.7B border buildup, imposes Medicaid work requirements, and terminates most IRA clean energy programs.
