Sen. Paul to Newsmax: Congress Needs a Spine to Fix Deficit

Last week, President Donald Trump signed his One Big Beautiful Bill Act into law, and the administration celebrated what it claims is the largest tax cut in history for middle-class Americans.

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., told Newsmax on Wednesday that while he supports the tax cuts in the legislation, “Congress needs to grow a spine and actually cut spending.”
