House Passes “Big, Beautiful Bill” in Major Victory for Trump, GOP

On Thursday morning, the House of Representatives passed a budget reconciliation package that contains many of President Donald Trump’s key domestic priorities.

“The version that ultimately passed the House delivers on many of Trump’s key 2024 campaign promises, primarily an extension of the tax cuts in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that were due to expire at the end of this year. Without an extension of those tax cuts, Americans would have seen what would effectively have been the largest tax hike in history. The bill also eliminates taxes on tips and overtime pay, includes tax deductions for purchasing an American-made vehicle, slashes taxes on Social Security income, and increases the child tax credit.”

Term of the Week: Memorial Day

“Memorial Day, a federal holiday held the last Monday in May, is the nation’s foremost annual day to mourn and honor its deceased service men and women.

Originally called Decoration Day, it was formalized by a “Memorial Day Order” issued by Grand Army of the Republic Commander-in-Chief John A. Logan in 1868.

The modern proclamation calls on Americans “to observe Memorial Day by praying, according to their individual religious faith, for permanent peace.”
