President Donald Trump urged Congress to “immediately” pass his agenda, calling for unity among Republicans in the House and Senate for his “one, big, beautiful bill.”
The president shared the plea in a Truth Social post on Wednesday following his “Liberation Day” event in the White House Rose Garden.
“Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune have been working tirelessly on taking the next step to pass the plan for our ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL, as it is known, as well as getting us closer to the Debt Extension necessary to continue our great work,” Trump began.
“The Senate Budget plan gives us the tools that we need to get our shared priorities done, including certain PERMANENT Tax Cuts, Spending Cuts, Energy, Historic Investments in Defense, Border, and much more. We are going to cut Spending, and right-size the Budget back to where it should be,” he continued.
Trump said that the plan has his support, calling for a swift decision by Congress.
“The Senate Plan has my Complete and Total Support. Likewise, the House is working along the same lines. Every Republican, House and Senate, must UNIFY. We need to pass it IMMEDIATELY!” he concluded.
Trump praised Thune and Johnson during his “Liberation Day” speech on Wednesday, calling for the bill to move forward.
“But they’ve been working tirelessly on taking the next step to pass the plan for our One Big Beautiful Bill. I’d like to name it that if you can. One Big Beautiful—I made that statement about six months ago, and everybody calls it One Big Beautiful Bill, and it will be that. It’ll have everything, the big tax cuts and every incentive there is. It’ll be fantastic,” he said.
Trump also referred to the “big beautiful bill” last month as the House passed a continuing resolution.
“We have the big, beautiful bill. We gotta get that done, and that will put our country in a position like it’s never been in. It’s a reduction of taxes. It’s tremendous incentives for companies to come from all over the world to come into our country,” Trump stated. “It’s great environmentally, but it’s not this environmental scam that we went through, we all went through. It provides for everything. It’s a big, beautiful bill, and I hope we can get it approved.”
