AFP Cheers House Concurrence of HR 1

Jul 3, 2025 by AFP

WASHINGTON, DC—Today, Americans for Prosperity (AFP) cheered the U.S. House of Representatives for concurring with the Senate on HR 1, the Big Beautiful Bill Act.

The tax package now goes to the White House, where President Trump is expected to sign the bill into law—cementing the pro-growth tax policy he championed in his first term with the original Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA).

AFP Chief Government Affairs Officer Brent Gardner celebrated the bill’s passage in the following statement:

“It wasn’t easy, but thanks to steady and patient leadership from Speaker Johnson and his team, Congress is sending historic legislation to the Resolute Desk for President Trump’s signature. We thank him for standing up for taxpayers and signing this bill.

“It can’t be overstated how monumental this win is for America’s hard-working families and job creators. By enshrining pro-growth tax policy permanently in the tax code, Congress has laid the foundation for long-term economic opportunity and prosperity.

“I also want to thank the millions of Americans who joined AFP’s grassroots army by knocking doors, calling their lawmakers, and participating in events nationwide to reinforce the importance of preventing the largest tax hike in history. This is your win. It’s also proof that by getting involved, every American has the power to improve their community and reignite the American Dream.

“Our work doesn’t stop here. To make good policy good politics, AFP will continue to leverage its unparalleled grassroots infrastructure to connect people to how the benefits of this bill will lead to generational growth and prosperity for millions of Americans.

“Too often after legislation is signed, the story of its success is left untold. AFP is committed to changing that.”
