Baumgartner Hails 'One, Big, Beautiful, Bill Act' as Major Win for Eastern Washington

May 22, 2025

WASHINGTON- Today, Congressman Michael Baumgartner (WA-5) issued the following statement on the passage of the One, Big, Beautiful, Bill Act.

“This bill delivers the largest tax cut in American history, saving the average American $5,000 a year and cutting taxes by 15% for working families,” said Congressman Baumgartner. In Eastern Washington, it protects 467,500 taxpayers from a looming 25% tax hike and increases funding for much needed technology to bolster border security. It’s not a silver bullet for D.C.’s $7 trillion spending problem, but it’s a strong start, and a major win for Eastern Washington.”
