WASHINGTON—Advancing American Freedom President Tim Chapman made the following statement on the Senate’s passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act:
“The Senate has voted to prevent the largest tax hike in American history and American families are one step closer to tax relief today. The Senate vote is a major step toward putting conservative policies on President Trump’s desk, including stopping an unwanted tax increase on millions of Americans, investing in our border security, prioritizing national defense, reforming entitlement spending, and defunding abortion. It’s time for the House to take up the bill, improve it where possible, and get this win across the finish line.”
Earlier this week, Advancing American Freedom launched ExtendTheTaxCuts.com to serve as a one-stop shop for lawmakers and staff to get President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill across the finish line. The website includes fast facts, talking points, memos, and an in-depth report for lawmakers to use as a resource when engaging with constituents and the press about the importance of extending the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA).
AAF is also running a new digital ad telling Congress to stop the largest tax hike in history as part of its $10 million nationwide grassroots campaign to renew the Trump tax cuts. AAF’s ad campaign warns that if Congress fails to send the package to the president’s desk this year, American households will suffer a $2,100 tax increase on average.

Campaign Features ExtendtheTaxCuts.com – Congress’ One-Stop Shop for Getting the One Big Beautiful Bill Across the Finish Line
WASHINGTON – Today, Advancing American Freedom launched a new website, ExtendTheTaxCuts.com, to serve as a one-stop shop for lawmakers and staff to get President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill across the finish line.
The website includes fast facts, talking points, memos, and an in-depth report for lawmakers to use as a resource when engaging with constituents and the press about the importance of extending the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA). Failure to renew this law would result in a $4 trillion tax increase on American taxpayers.
Advancing American Freedom President Tim Chapman shared the site with Members of Congress and their staff in a letter today, saying:
“The only thing standing between American families and a $2,100 increase on their taxes next year is One Big Beautiful Bill. We hope Members of Congress and their staff will use this website as a resource in selling this extremely important bill throughout the remainder of the legislative process and defending it on the campaign trail once the job is finished and the One Big Beautiful Bill is officially across the finish line. Let’s get this done and prevent the largest tax hike in American history.”
Advancing American Freedom also announced a new digital ad buy on Capitol Hill telling Congress to stop the largest tax hike in history as part of its $10 million nationwide grassroots campaign to renew the Trump tax cuts. AAF’s ad campaign warns that if Congress fails to send the package to the president’s desk this year, American households will suffer a $2,100 tax increase on average.

WASHINGTON – Advancing American Freedom President Tim Chapman made the following statement after the Senate Finance Committee released new text for the One Big Beautiful Bill –
“The Senate has built on the House’s strong start to renew the Trump tax cuts. Now Congress must continue to refine this package and send it to President Trump’s desk. Otherwise, American families will see a devastating $2,000 increase on their taxes next year. Let’s get this done and prevent the largest tax hike in American history.”
In a letter last week, Chapman called on Republican Senators to swiftly pass the One, Big, Beautiful Bill and urged improvements to the bill by lowering the corporate tax rate; eliminating the State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction entirely; instituting full, immediate, and permanent expensing; ending all Green New Deal subsidies; and stripping the debt limit language out of the bill. The current Senate version of the bill reflects encouraging progress on many of these provisions, despite exacerbating AAF’s concerns about the debt limit and Green New Deal subsidies.
In May, Advancing American Freedom launched a slate of ads urging Congress to pass President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill as part of its $10 million nationwide grassroots campaign to renew the Trump tax cuts. AAF’s ad campaign warns that if Congress fails to send the package to the president’s desk this year, American households will suffer a $2,100 tax increase on average.

Conservatives should take this small but radical step to cut wasteful Washington spending
WASHINGTON, DC – Advancing American Freedom urges lawmakers to pass the $9.4 billion rescissions package coming to the House floor this week. AAF President Tim Chapman said:
“AAF urges the House GOP to pass President Trump’s rescissions package today. This package gives many Members the first chance of their tenure to cut a dollar of wasteful Washington spending. We hope Members will try to exercise this new muscle and take the lead from here on rebuilding the fiscal discipline of a functioning legislature.
“Conservatives in Congress should see today’s vote for what it is – a small but radical step toward reining in our bloated federal bureaucracy. It’s time to stay laser focused on what Republicans promised to deliver to American families, make this the first in a series of spending cuts going forward, and start tackling our $37 trillion national debt crisis.”

The sooner Congress can advance tax reforms, the sooner Americans can recover from four years of President Biden
WASHINGTON – Advancing American Freedom President Tim Chapman and Chairman Marc Short today sent a letter to Republican Senators urging them to swiftly refine and pass the One, Big, Beautiful Bill. They write:
“One, Big, Beautiful Bill (OBBB) is all that stands between the American people and a $4.6 trillion tax hike in 2026. If Congress gets cold feet—or fails to send the package to the president’s desk—American households will suffer a $2,100 tax increase on average.
“OBBB not only defuses the looming tax bomb, it takes a first step toward entitlement reform, rebuilds the military, and ensures that our Border Patrol agents and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers have the tools they need to secure the border and deport illegal aliens.
Chapman and Short cite AAF’s analysis on why flawed CBO analysis should not set terms for renewing the tax cuts, saying:
“Some would hold American families hostage over Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) and Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates. But, as our analysis has demonstrated, their scoring of 2017’s landmark tax package has undercounted revenue by $1.5 trillion thus far, and could ultimately prove wrong by more than $3.2 trillion over the ten-year window.
They also outline how the Senate can refine the bill further:
“We recommend lowering the corporate tax rate; eliminating the State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction entirely; instituting full, immediate, and permanent expensing; ending all Green New Deal subsidies; and stripping the debt limit language out of the bill. These changes would promote growth, cut waste, and put America on better footing for tackling our long-term debt crisis.
“The sooner that Congress can advance these reforms and send a package to the president’s desk for a signature, the sooner our economy can recover from four years of President Biden.”
Advancing American Freedom has been the leading conservative voice calling for Congress to swiftly renew the historic Trump tax cuts and deliver on the promise of pro-growth tax reform that lowers taxes for everyone. AAF will be crisscrossing the country throughout its $10 million campaign to highlight why Congress should act now to prevent unwanted tax hikes on millions of Americans.

Five-Figure Ad Campaign Urges Senate to Get Bill Across Finish Line
WASHINGTON – Advancing American Freedom (AAF) has launched a new five-figure ad campaign defending House conservatives in the battleground states of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania who voted to renew the Trump tax cuts after leftist attack ads criticized the Republican lawmakers over the vote.
The digital ads, part of AAF’s $10 million nationwide grassroots effort calling on Congress to renew the Trump tax cuts, will run in the districts of Tom Barrett (MI-07), John James (MI-10), Derrick Van Orden (WI-03), Scott Perry (PA-10), and Brian Fitzpatrick (PA-01).The ads feature testimonial from a small family business owner describing how a $1,700 average tax hike per household would impact her livelihood if Congress doesn’t get tax cuts across the finish line:
“I own a small family-owned business here in Pennsylvania.
“The Republican tax cuts in 2017 led to a needed economic boom. Those tax cuts saved us.
“But if Congress doesn’t get their act together and renew these tax cuts, average families will see a nearly $2,000 tax hike.
“Don’t raise my taxes. Don’t raise anybody’s taxes. Tell Congress to make the Trump tax cuts permanent now –before it’s too late.”
WATCH: “Those Tax Cuts Saved Us”
AAF President Tim Chapman said:
“Americans should call and thank every one of these House conservatives for voting to renew the Trump tax cuts. If Congress allows the Trump tax cuts to expire, families across the country will see the largest tax hike in American history. We can’t afford to let that happen. It’s time for the Senate to move swiftly and get this bill to President Trump’s desk.”

Republicans have promised to cut spending and cut taxes. It’s time to get it done.
WASHINGTON – Advancing American Freedom has urged lawmakers to pass the $9.4 billion rescissions package the White House will send to Congress this week as an important step towards cutting wasteful government spending.
AAF President Tim Chapman said:
“I thank my friend OMB Director Russ Vought for his tireless work to deliver the inaugural rescissions package to Congress.
“Most Members of Congress have never cut federal spending since coming to Washington. This package, although small, gives them that opportunity and is a first step in the long journey towards restoring fiscal sanity.
“With the national debt surging toward $37 trillion, there is no excuse to delay. OMB has done the work. Now Congressional Republicans, who promised the American people that they would cut spending, must deliver. It’s time to get it done. Passing this small package of cuts is critical to beginning the process to fix our national deficit. After Congress passes this bill, it should take the lead on implementing cuts instead of relying on the White House for momentum.
“Congress must tackle our national debt crisis and deliver real federal spending cuts to hardworking American families, beginning with this rescissions package.”

“The Constitution Is the Common Ground on Which We Stand”, Says Pence
WASHINGTON – AAF Founder Vice President Mike Pence received the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award this week for his service to our country and his leadership putting principle above politics. Pence joined CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins for an exclusive sit down after receiving the award to reflect on the role of the Constitution and the time-honored principles that helped the first Trump administration deliver wins for the American people.
WATCH: Vice President Mike Pence Receives the Profile in Courage Award
Vice President Mike Pence:
“It was deeply humbling for me to receive the recognition of the Profile in Courage award last night… as I shared last night, the thing that I am more convinced of than ever is that as we face challenges in our country at home and abroad, as we resolve difference between Americans, the Constitution is the common ground on which we stand.”
“The American people cherish our Constitution. They cherish our rich traditions in liberty, and I think recognizing that the people of this country will always stand on that common ground should be a great source of encouragement to all of us.”
On why free trade with free nations is the best path forward:
“I think ultimately [a 10% broad-based tariff] would stifle American growth, limit prosperity, drive up costs for American consumers. We ought to be driving again toward that principle of free trade with free nations and standing tough, standing firm on authoritarian regimes like China.”
“When it comes to authoritarian regimes, we ought to get tough, stay tough, and demand that they open their markets and respect our intellectual property.”
On what the 47th President can learn from the 45th:
“I hope even from the outside I can remind the president of the policies that succeeded in our administration—policies that created security and prosperity and strengthened the values of the American people.”

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Advancing American Freedom Founder Vice President Mike Pence penned an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal this week arguing that, now more than ever, America needs the ideas and policies that made the first Trump administration a success.
Vice President Pence writes that adherence to the time-honored principles that created prosperity during the president’s first term is the best way to build something lasting for America’s future:
“President Trump deserves credit for an energetic and effective start. His instincts on security, strength and sovereignty are as sharp as ever. But if we want to see this nation become truly great again, we can’t exchange time-tested conservative principles for populist platitudes. We need to stand with our allies and stand up to our enemies. We need to cut taxes and tariffs, keep our military strong and well-funded, and lead on the world stage.”
He also cautions against a counterproductive tariff policy, instead urging the renewal of the historic Trump tax cuts:
“Mr. Trump’s proposed tariffs would be the largest peacetime tax hike in American history, harming consumers and driving inflation. Broad-based tariffs may scratch a populist itch, but protectionist economics are no substitute for principled conservatism. The Trump administration can still get the economy back on track through free trade with free nations, even as the U.S. retains targeted tariffs on adversaries such as China. Instead of punishing free nations, we should rally them—uniting the democratic world in trade agreements that isolate China, not Europe and our Pacific allies.”
“Extending all the Trump-Pence tax cuts must also be an immediate priority. Failure to do so would amount to the largest middle-class tax hike in modern history, costing millions of American jobs. Congress should also resist populist calls to raise the top rate, a move that would put an enormous burden on small-business owners, including farmers and manufacturers.”
