ICYMI: "Most Essential Piece of Legislation" in the Western World
The White House
June 4, 2025
In a series of X posts, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller outlined why President Donald J. Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to deliver on his core promises to lower taxes, secure the border, and rein in spending - and why Congress must act now to deliver on the promises they made to voters.

The one wrinkle of reconciliation is you can't make "discretionary cuts" (eg the bureaucracy) just mandatory (eg food stamp reform).
Discretionary cuts happen through a separate process known as "rescissions" (also 50 votes).
BBB was designed by President Trump and his allies…
The bill was designed by President Trump, his loyal aides, and his closest allies in Congress to deliver fully and enthusiastically on the explicit promises he made the American People. https://t.co/PMmYD9lw19- Stephen Miller (@StephenM) June 4, 2025
