AFP Issues Key Vote Alert, Urges House to Quickly Concur with Senate on Tax Relief for Americans
WASHINGTON, DC—Today, Americans for Prosperity (AFP) issued a Key Vote Alert urging the U.S. House of Representatives to concur with the Senate on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (HR 1).
AFP Chief Government Affairs Officer Brent Gardner issued the following statement after issuing the Key Vote Alert to the House:
“We are so close to delivering a generational win to Americans by making pro-growth tax policy permanent. When we pass this bill, job creators and families will have the certainty they need to invest in their businesses and futures, reigniting the American Dream.
“We are encouraged by the thoughtful and productive discussions that have brought this legislation back to the House and urge members to pass it expeditiously to ensure that Americans start reaping the benefits of this transformative legislation as soon as possible.
“Since January, AFP activists have made hundreds of thousands of phone calls, sent innumerable postcards, and knocked hundreds of thousands of doors to build support for the bill and emphasize the urgency of ensuring that Americans aren’t hit with the largest tax hike in history. It’s time to get this bill to the Oval Office for President Trump’s signature. We’re at the goal line, it’s time to punch it in. Let’s fulfill all those campaign promises and secure this victory for hardworking American taxpayers.”
