GOP Rep. Tim Moore: Some of the Provisions ‘That Hitched a Ride’ on the Big, Beautiful Bill Are of No Consequence to Me

EXCERPT:

MOORE: “You know, I‘m agnostic on some of these other provisions that don‘t go to the core mission that‘s been laid out of, you know, again, extending the Trump tax cuts, investing in energy, investing in the border, investing in national defense, reining in the national debt. A lot of these other things that are kind of, have sort of, I guess you‘d say, hitched a ride, you know, whether they‘re in there or not is, you know, is not of consequence to me. As long as at the end of the day, everything squares and we‘re going to be better off at the end than we are right now. And I‘m going to tell you, we don‘t have an option but to do this because, you know, if we don‘t pass this, it will be one of the most massive tax increases that the American people have seen. And we‘re not going to let that happen. And I‘ll tell you, I trust our president. I think he‘s, you know, he‘s shown tremendous leadership on the international stage. He has shown a lot of leadership within the country, of course, and I think he really has a good idea of the direction of the country is going and the direction it needs to continue to go. And so, I want to be there to be a part of seeing that we keep moving America forward.”
