For who? The richest?

AI Overview +2 According to analyses by non-partisan organizations like the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and groups like the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the new Republican bill being debated in Congress, known as the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," would primarily benefit the wealthiest Americans. Here's a breakdown of its reported effects: Benefits for High-Income Earners: The bill includes over $3 trillion in tax cuts, which would provide the largest savings to top earners. According to the CBO, families in the top 10% of household income (earning an average of $692,000 annually) would see average yearly savings of about $12,000. Reduced Resources for Lower-Income Households: The bill also includes approximately $1.3 trillion in cuts to federal spending, which would disproportionately affect middle- and lower-income Americans. These cuts include a significant reduction in funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and changes to Medicaid eligibility and ACA marketplace coverage that would increase the number of uninsured Americans. Net Loss for Lower-Income Families: For families earning less than about $55,000 per year, the reductions in government benefits would typically exceed any tax savings, resulting in a net loss. Shift in Resource Distribution: The overall effect, according to the CBO, is a decrease in resources for lower-income households and an increase for middle- and top-income households, with the largest increase going to the wealthiest. In summary, independent analyses suggest that the new Republican bill would primarily benefit the richest Americans through substantial tax cuts, while reducing resources for lower-income households through cuts to government programs

Democrat policies raised prices that hurt seniors. They said inflation was transitory. They blamed Russia. Then they claimed it was price gouging.

Republicans are cleaning up Democrats' mess, starting with passing President Trump's One, Big, Beautiful Bill that will deliver real relief to seniors.
