Rep. Jason Smith to Newsmax: Big, Beautiful Bill ‘Focused on Working Families’

Rep. Jason Smith, R-Mo., told Newsmax on Thursday that Republicans decided to rebrand the party’s signature tax cut and spending legislation in an effort to better “communicate what’s in the bill, which is tax relief for working families.”

During a messaging strategy meeting on Wednesday morning, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, President Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign political director James Blair, and his campaign’s chief pollster Tony Fabrizio reportedly told House Republicans and their staff to refer to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act only as the “working families tax cut.”

When asked about the recent push to rename the legislation, Smith, the chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, said on “Wake Up America” that he has “always referred to it as the ‘working families tax cut’ because the majority of the tax cuts within the one big, beautiful bill are all focused on working families.”
