AFP: Passage of OBBBA is ‘Monumental Win’ for Wyoming
CHEYENNE, WY — Today, the U.S. House of Representatives concurred with the Senate on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), paving the way for President Trump to sign the sweeping pro-growth economic package into law.
The OBBBA renews the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), a key provision that helps Wyomingites keep more of their hard-earned money and prevents the largest tax increase in history. As part of AFP’s national Protect Prosperity campaign, AFP-Wyoming has been speaking with voters across the state to highlight the importance of these tax cuts.
AFP-Wyoming State Director Tyler Lindholm issued the following statement on the passage of the bill:
“We’re deeply grateful for Rep. Harriet Hageman and Senators John Barrasso and Cynthia Lummis for delivering on their promise and paved the way for long-term economic opportunity and prosperity. The passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and renewal of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is a monumental win for hardworking Wyoming families and job creators.
“AFP-WY’s grassroots army of activists spent their weekends knocking doors, calling their lawmakers, and participating in events throughout the state to reinforce the importance of preventing the largest tax hike in history.”
