AFP Applauds Passage of House Budget Resolution Out of Committee as Key Step Toward Extending TCJA
ARLINGTON, VA— Americans for Prosperity (AFP) commends the House Committee on the Budget for advancing the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2025, a critical step toward delivering meaningful economic relief to the American people and advancing the pro-growth policies championed by President Donald Trump.
“Approving this budget resolution is a fundamental first step toward extending the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), ensuring hardworking Americans are not burdened with unnecessary tax increases,” said Brent Gardner, AFP’s Chief Government Affairs Officer and Senior Vice President. “With families already struggling under the weight of rising costs and economic uncertainty, it is essential to preserve tax relief that allows them to keep more of their hard-earned money.”
Once the House and Senate agree on a unified budget, Congressional committees can begin drafting legislation to extend these tax cuts and protect American workers. Securing today’s approval of the Concurrent Budget Resolution was a crucial milestone in this process. AFP played an active role in supporting its passage through a formal submission to the committee, mobilizing its grassroots network, and launching a rapid-response digital ad campaign to drive public engagement.

Additionally, AFP welcomes the resolution’s commitment to restoring American energy abundance and securing our nation’s border. We look forward to the forthcoming reconciliation package addressing the harmful energy policies that have hindered domestic production and contributed to higher costs for consumers, in addition to providing the resources needed to correct former President Biden’s disastrous policies at our borders.
AFP remains committed to advancing policies that promote economic opportunity, energy abundance, and both financial and national security for all Americans.
