Congressman Keith Self released the following statement today after the U.S. House of Representatives passed the "Big Beautiful Bill." Congressman Self voted in the affirmative. Having passed both chambers of Congress, the bill will now head to President Trump's desk to be signed into law.
"President Trump has shown true leadership by listening to all voices involved with making the Big Beautiful Bill a success for the American people. Multiple spending issues have now been addressed, and with that, I am confident that we can move forward to ensure that this historic piece of legislation will have a lasting impact for future generations," Congressman Keith Self said. "While the bill is not perfect, there are significant conservative wins the House Freedom Caucus has achieved, including, among other things, securing nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid savings. HFC moved the bill dramatically to the right on almost every front and at every stage of the process, including overnight, as a small group of us continued working with the White House to address critical policy and spending issues. President John F. Kennedy said, 'We do these things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.' In this case, 'these things' were hard-fought with a man whom I voted for and for whom I have tremendous respect-President Donald J. Trump. For these reasons, I voted YES on the rule AND final passage of the Big Beautiful Bill."
