I rise today to celebrate a generational win for working families, our farmers, small businesses, and for the future of this great Nation: the signing of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act by President Trump. This landmark legislation is not just a win for agriculture. It is a win for the American people. It delivers the largest middle-class tax cut in American history, bringing real relief to hardworking Pennsylvanians and families all across this great country. Without this bill, the average taxpayer in Pennsylvania's 15th District would face a 24 percent tax increase. A family of four earning the district's median income would be hit with a $1,145 tax hike without this legislation, the equivalent of nearly 5 weeks of groceries for a typical household in our region. This bill delivers on President Trump's commitment to rebuild our economy, reward work, and protect the American Dream. For Pennsylvanians, this bill accomplishes the following: 66,690 families in PA-15 will benefit from an expanded child tax credit; 7,652 family farms in our district are now protected from the death tax; 38,110 small businesses in PA-15 are safeguarded by the 20 percent small business deduction, keeping effective tax rates low and allowing reinvestment in our local communities; 96 percent of PA-15 taxpayers are benefiting from the double standard deduction, reducing taxable income and simplifying filing. This is the largest tax cut in history for middle-and working-class Americans.
