Chairwoman Stefanik Provides Deciding Vote and GOP Women Stand Strong for ‘One Big Beautiful Bill, Unlocking President Trump’s America First Agenda

This week, the House Republicans worked nonstop for the American people and passed the One Big Beautiful Bill, a historic piece of legislation that will bring about President Trump’s Golden Age of America for generations to come.

House Republican Leadership Chairwoman Elise Stefanik stated –

“I was proud to be the deciding vote to pass the One Big Beautiful Bill, a historic victory for New Yorkers and President Trump's America First agenda.

More than 77 million Americans gave House Republicans and President Trump a mandate to cut taxes, secure our borders, restore energy independence, and deliver peace through strength.

This legislation includes key provisions that will benefit hardworking New York families. I was especially proud to work with my New York Republican colleagues to lead on delivering significant tax relief for New Yorkers by increasing the State and Local Tax cap by 300% – a win for hard working families struggling under the weight of the highest tax burden in the nation because of Gov. Kathy Hochul's failed Far Left tax and spend Democrat policies.

Some additional provisions include:

Delivering the largest tax cut in American history, No tax on tips and no tax on overtime, Protecting Medicaid for Americans by removing 1.4 million illegals, Making permanent President Trump’s border security, Modernizing air traffic control, Ending taxpayer-funded sex changes for minors, Delivering tens of billions of dollars in expanded ICE detention and calls for hiring a minimum of 10,000 new ICE agents, Including $25 billion for President Trump’s Golden Dome, a layered missile defense shield for America, Holding woke, elite universities accountable by increasing the university endowment tax and subjecting the largest endowments to the corporate tax rate, Reversing Joe Biden’s EV mandates and CAFE standards for passenger cars and light trucks.

I urge the Senate to immediately pass our historic legislation to enact the One Big Beautiful Bill and ring in the Golden Age of America."

Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna (FL-13) stated –

“Was at the house voting until around 6am!

Reconciliation is PASSED! That means, pending Senate approval:

✔️Tax relief for seniors
✔️Social Security and Medicaid PROTECTED!
✔️NO tax on tips
✔️NO tax on overtime
✔️PERMANENT Trump tax cuts for the working and middle class

Promises made. Promises kept.”

Chairwoman Stefanik Supports DOJ Investigation Into Disgraced Former Governor Andrew Cuomo

This week, the U.S. Department of Justice launched an investigation into former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s fatal nursing home executive order and cover-up.

House Republican Leadership Chairwoman Elise Stefanik stated —

"This is a long-awaited and important step for much-needed accountability for New Yorkers. The Department of Justice investigation of disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo for his fatal nursing home executive order, cover-up, and lies to Congress is a much-needed step toward justice for the more than 15,000 New York seniors who lost their lives. This is also incredibly important for the families who have advocated tirelessly on behalf of their loved ones.

For years, I led the charge to deliver answers and accountability for the heartbroken families across New York who lost loved ones because of Cuomo’s criminal corruption. From calling for independent federal investigations as early as 2020, to advocating to the DOJ and HHS alongside my New York Republican colleagues, to leading tough questions during a transcribed interview with Cuomo in June 2024, I have never wavered in my commitment to these grieving families.

The bombshell revelations of Cuomo’s administration intentionally withholding nursing home death data, as admitted by his senior aides, and his refusal to accept responsibility for the deadly March 25, 2020, directive that forced nursing homes to accept COVID-positive patients, represent a betrayal of public trust at the highest levels. His attempts to stonewall Congress and peddle lies to cover up this tragedy only deepen the pain of New Yorkers who deserve transparency and justice.

I will continue to fight tirelessly on behalf of New York families who have suffered unimaginable loss to ensure that Cuomo faces the full legal consequences of his actions and that such a tragedy is never repeated.

The day of reckoning is here, and I will not rest until justice is served for the people of New York."

WATCH: GOP Women in the News

This was a huge week for GOP women, President Trump, and the America First movement — both House GOP Leadership Chairwoman Elise Stefanik, and Congresswoman Claudia Tennet and Kat Cammack joined Fox News hosts to discuss the major wins that come from passing President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill and more!

House Republican Leadership Chairwoman Elise Stefanik stated –

“What I believe is most important is President Trump's agenda. This is our one opportunity to deliver for the American people. We need to see that as the result. So this is about extending tax cuts. It's no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, unleashing American energy independence and securing the border once and for all, which President Trump has done by executive action, but we need to compact that and provide the federal funding to do so. That is what this is about. And these details, while they are important, we need to not let them get in the way from delivering on this for the American people.”

Congresswoman Claudia Tenney (NY-24) stated –

"We're very pleased that this One, Big, Beautiful Bill was finally passed... There is a lot in this bill. We are going to have the biggest tax cuts, that's the renewal of the Trump tax cuts plus more, border security, common sense, unleashing American energy..."

Watch a clip from Claudia’s interview here.

Congresswoman Kat Cammack (FL-03) stated –

“We’re putting together the package that the president promised to the American people. It’s important we continue working together for the good of the country to put the American people first and deliver ‘one big, beautiful bill.’”

Chairwoman Stefanik Demands Transparency from Harvard Over Alarming Ties to Chinese Communist Party, Iran

Earlier this week, House Republican Leadership Chairwoman Elise Stefanik, along with Rep. John Moolenaar and Rep. Tim Walberg, issued a formal request to Harvard University seeking internal records and correspondence related to the school’s ties with foreign adversaries.

Chairwoman Stefanik issued the following statement upon demanding transparency from Harvard University President Alan Garber, regarding evidence of repeated interactions and collaborations between Harvard faculty and Chinese Communist Party (CCP) entities.

House Republican Leadership Chairwoman Elise Stefanik stated –

“Harvard University must be held accountable. I demand full transparency and immediate cooperation with the Select Committee’s investigation. We must ensure that no American institution enables the CCP’s military modernization or the Iranian regime’s technological ambitions — especially under the guise of academic exchange.

Harvard University’s actions represent a grave betrayal of the American people, our national security, and the foundational values of academic responsibility. Any institution of higher education that accepts taxpayer support must uphold the laws of our nation, protect our national interests, and act ethically. Harvard's alleged conduct — including training members of a sanctioned Chinese paramilitary group and conducting joint research with Iran-backed and PLA-linked institutions — raises serious legal, moral, and national security concerns.These actions appear to directly contradict U.S. sanctions law, and they may have actively aided genocidal actors and hostile foreign militaries.”
