On the recordMay 21, 2025
after that very long and wandering speech, my friends, and after a long week and a long night and countless hours of work over the past year, a lot of prayer and a lot of teamwork, my friends, it quite literally is again morning in America, isn't it? After 4 long years of President Biden's failures, President Trump's America First agenda is finally here. We are advancing that today. What we are going to do this morning is truly historic, and it will make all the difference in the daily lives of hardworking Americans. The Dallas waitress pulling overtime, the Detroit mom counting bills late at night, and the Kentucky coal miner waiting on his second chance are the forgotten men and women of our country that we are all called here to serve. The one big, beautiful bill will deliver for those people. It revives our economy. It will deliver historic tax relief. It will make the largest investment in our border security in a generation. It will unleash affordable American energy again, restore common sense to government, secure generational savings, and strengthen our national defense, while it also strengthens our essential programs like Medicaid for the people who need it the most. That is what we are doing with the one big, beautiful bill. To put it simply, this bill gets Americans back to winning again, and it has been a long time coming.
