The legislation delivers $4.3 billion for heavy Polar security cutters, $3.5 billion for medium Arctic security cutters, and an additional $816 million for lighter ice-capable vessels. It’s the largest Arctic maritime investment in US history, and it comes at a moment of escalating geopolitical stakes in the Far North.”

National Federation of Independent Business: America’s Small Businesses Applaud President Trump, Congress for Stopping Massive Tax Hike on Main Street
“Since 2017, the Small Business Tax Deduction has allowed small businesses to deduct up to 20% of their business income. Without immediate action by Congress, this essential tax deduction was set to expire at the end of the year, raising taxes on millions of small businesses. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act provides permanent tax relief, freeing America’s small businesses to invest in their businesses and employees. Along with making the Small Business Deduction permanent, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act includes additional wins for small businesses:
National Hog Farmer: The National Pork Producers Council thanks President Trump for signing into law the “One Big, Beautiful Bill”
“NPPC President Duane Stateler, a pork producer from McComb, Ohio, said, ‘The ‘One Big, Beautiful Bill’ is one of the most consequential pieces of legislation for American agriculture in years. It helps producers protect our herds by fending off foreign animal diseases, and it also cuts red tape, allowing us to more easily pass down our farms to the next generation.’ NPPC thanks President Trump for signing ‘One Big, Beautiful Bill’ into law and Chairmen Thompson and Boozman for listening to our input and shepherding this legislation through their respective chambers.”
AgDaily: Farmers repeatedly praise this one piece of Trump’s budget bill
“‘Thank you, President Trump.’ That sentiment has been repeated often by farmers during conversations and across social media in the days since the One Big Beautiful Bill Act passed through Congress and was signed into law. Farmers have specifically celebrated how the bill overhauls the ‘death tax’ – the taxes imposed by the federal and some state governments on someone’s estate upon death …
This is particularly important for commodity and other traditionally large-scale agricultural producers. Unlike liquid assets such as stocks or bank accounts, a farm’s value is often tied up in land, equipment, and other hard assets. It’s not uncommon for a modest, family-run farm to be worth millions of dollars on paper, even if the family running it isn’t living a life of luxury. When those hard assets are included in an estate calculation, especially as the value of an acre increases, it doesn’t take long for farmland to hit the exemption threshold.
‘For farm families, estate taxes aren’t just an abstract policy debate – they’re a very real threat to generational farms and the livelihoods they support,’ said Amanda Zaluckyj, an AGDAILY columnist, lawyer, and part of a family farm in Michigan. ‘Land-rich but cash-poor families may be forced to sell land, equipment, or even the farm itself just to pay the estate tax bill. That’s not just a financial inconvenience – it’s a devastating blow to families who have spent generations building their operations with the intention of passing them on to their children and grandchildren.'”
Retail Insight Network: Trump’s ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ wins praise from US retailers
“With Congress approving President Trump’s sweeping “One Big Beautiful Bill” ahead of Independence Day, US retailers are voicing strong support for the legislation’s pro-growth measures, hailing it as a historic step for the economy.”
Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent: President Trump’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ will unleash parallel prosperity
“We have seen American workers benefit from the president’s economic approach before. Under President Trump’s 2017 tax cuts, the net worth of the bottom 50% of households increased faster than the net worth of the top 10% of households. That will happen again under the One Big Beautiful Bill. The bill prevents a $4.5 trillion tax hike on the American people. This will allow the average worker to keep an additional $4,000 to $7,200 in annual real wages and allow the average family of four to keep an additional $7,600 to $10,900 in take-home pay. Add to this the president’s ambitious deregulation agenda, which could save the average family of four an additional $10,000. For millions of Americans, these savings are the difference between being able to make a mortgage payment, buy a car, or send a child to college.
The president is delivering on his promise to seniors as well. The bill provides an additional $6,000 deduction for seniors, which will mean that 88% of seniors receiving Social Security income will pay no tax on their Social Security benefits.
The One Big Beautiful Bill also codifies no tax on tips and no tax on overtime pay-both policies designed to provide financial relief to America’s working class. These tax breaks will ensure Main Street workers keep more of their hard-earned income. And they will bolster productivity by rewarding Americans who work extra hours … These productivity-enhancing measures dovetail with the second booster in the blue-collar boom: providing 100% expensing for new factories and existing factories that expand operations, plus car loan interest deductibility to support Made-in-America.”
Rep. Riley Moore: One Big Beautiful Bill Delivers for West Virginia
“President Trump’s signature legislation is a huge win for the American people that puts our nation on the path to a new Golden Age. I’m proud to have voted in favor of this legislation that puts America First.
The One Big Beautiful Bill gives the Trump Administration the tools it needs to reclaim our national sovereignty and ramp up mass deportations. It delivers the largest tax cut for working and middle-class families in American history. It also unleashes American energy, which is critical to powering our economy, reindustrializing the heartland, and winning the global AI arms race.”
Rep. Randy Feenstra: Making President Trump’s ‘One, Big, Beautiful Bill’ the law of the land
“This pro-family, pro-worker, pro-growth economic package is the culmination of President Trump’s campaign promises and conservative economic principles, which will dramatically grow our economy, cut deficits, and create jobs. It is the largest tax cut in American history for families, farmers, workers, and small businesses, ensuring that Iowans keep more of their hard-earned money – not the federal government.
The provisions of the ‘One, Big, Beautiful Bill’ will be jet fuel for our economy. Estimates by the Council of Economic Advisers suggest that our GDP could grow by as much as 5.2% in the short run and 3.5% in the long run while investment in our country could see a 14.5% boost with more than four million jobs created in the long term. These figures underscore the positive effects of tax cuts, sensible deregulation, and certainty for businesses and manufacturers.”
