Blake Moore: “I want to take a minute just to walk through, big picture, what we are accomplishing with this reconciliation bill…”

“I want to take a minute just to walk through, big picture, what we are accomplishing with this reconciliation bill titled the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, and walk through some of the provisions. I actually tried my hardest back in my district to let facts rule the day and not be governed and manipulated by a lot of rhetoric about this particular type of work. I am going to take you back, Mr. Speaker, to my first election when I first decided to run for Congress. It was the end of January 2020. We had never heard of the term ``COVID'' before. We had seen a tax reform bill take place at the end of 2017 that people couldn't really wrap their heads around. I was working for a consulting firm, and I remember talking to some of the partners at the firm. I was a principal at the time--actually, I was probably an engagement manager at the time. I remember them saying: We are going to see a significant tax decrease. If this bill goes through, we are going to have a substantial amount of extra discretionary money. What are we going to do with it?”
