Vice President JD Vance visited northeast Pennsylvania on July 16 to make the Trump administration’s first big pitch to voters on President Donald Trump’s tax cuts and budget legislation, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
Vance, who cast the tiebreaking vote in the Senate to send the bill to Trump’s desk on Independence Day, touted the legislation’s tax breaks and funding for energy production and a children’s savings program. He also cast Democrats as enemies of tax breaks—and thus of the working class—because none supported the legislation in Congress.
