House Republicans Celebrate “One Big Beautiful Bill”; Rep. Liccardo Calls Out Harmful Cuts and Rising Debt
WASHINGTON, D.C. - This week, House Republicans passed a resolution celebrating H.R. 1, the so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill." Congressman Sam Liccardo warned that the measure slashes healthcare, nutrition assistance, and education while adding $3.7 trillion to the deficit over the next decade.
Liccardo released the following statement:
"The 119th Congress goes down in modern history as this nation's least productive, and yet all the Republican majority can pass is a resolution patting themselves on the back for passing a bill a year ago.
Worse, Americans find nothing to celebrate about this one Big, Bloated, Borrowing Bill. House Republicans voted to cut healthcare, nutrition assistance, and education while adding $3.7 trillion to the deficit over the next decade. The measure brings more debt for our children and more pain for working families, who already struggle under the additional inflation wrought by tariffs and this unlawful war."
