“President Trump just signed the One Big Beautiful Bill into law—delivering the largest working and middle class tax cut in American history. God Bless the USA!” 9th Dist. Rep. Andrew Clyde declared on X not long after the President signed the legislation.
But the AJC reports the Jackson County Republican was one of a handful of GOP holdouts the President had to convince to vote “yes.”
The AJC’s Greg Bluestein, Tia Mitchell, Patricia Murphy and Adam Beam report that President Trump’s signature domestic policy legislation passed Friday but only after he spent all day and most of the night convincing a final group of Republican holdouts, including Clyde.
They report Clyde was among a group of GOP lawmakers who held up the bill into the early morning hours through a series of procedural votes.
