Friends,

The One, Big, Beautiful Bill (OBBB) is a win for American families and the future of our country. It stopped the largest tax hike in history, secured our borders, lowered energy prices, and strengthened Medicaid.

Bad actors are pushing misinformation and even outright lies about President Trump’s landmark legislation that I was PROUD to support. It’s disgraceful. Here are some of the myths they are pushing vs the actual truth:

Myth: Republicans cut Medicaid, leaving millions of Americans without healthcare.

THE TRUTH: Republicans ended waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicaid while protecting care for those who need it.

Medicaid was created to serve the most vulnerable: children, seniors, pregnant women, and individuals with disabilities. Over the last decade, liberals in Washington expanded the program beyond its original mission, while many of our most needy citizens fell through the cracks.

What happened under Democrat policies:

• Illegal immigrants and non-working, able-bodied adults received Medicaid.
• In 2024 alone, 2.8 million Americans double-dipped and received healthcare from more than one government program, a waste of approximately $14 billion.
• 2.2 million people ineligible for Medicaid remained insured due to previous regulations.

The OBBB fixed this by:

• Removing illegal immigrants from Medicaid.
• Requiring work or job training for able-bodied working-age adults.
• Increasing frequency of state-led Medicaid eligibility audits.
• Refocusing Medicaid dollars on the people it was meant to serve.

Myth: Republicans gave tax breaks to billionaires.

THE TRUTH: Republicans stopped the largest tax increase in history on Texas families.

The Trump tax cuts from 2017 were set to expire at the end of 2025. Without passage of the OBBB, Texans would have faced higher taxes and less money in their pockets. The OBBB made those tax cuts permanent and provided real relief for working families and small businesses.

In TX-05, my vote for the OBBB stopped:

• A 24% tax increase for the average taxpayer.
• 98,680 families losing half their Child Tax Credit.
• 91% of taxpayers losing half their Guaranteed Deduction.
• $1,524 more in taxes for a family of four making $74,908.
• A 43.4% tax rate for 46,130 small businesses.

Beyond strengthening Medicaid and stopping the largest tax hike in history, the OBBB eliminated taxes on tips and overtime, provided incentives for childcare, created savings accounts for newborns, and invested in modernizing our air traffic control system.

President Trump’s One, Big, Beautiful Bill was a win for our country and families. The propagandists can continue pushing their misinformation and lies, but when these policies take full effect, the American people will be WINNERS.

I was proud to support it and will continue supporting President Trump’s policies as he ushers in the Golden Age of America.

Sincerely,
