Vance heads to Pennsylvania to launch the White House’s first major push to sell Trump’s big bill

UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – JD Vance cast the tie-breaking Senate vote to pass a Trump-backed $9 billion rescissions package cutting funding for public media and foreign aid programs, despite GOP opposition.

  • Vice President JD Vance traveled to northeastern Pennsylvania on Wednesday to promote President Trump's recently signed budget-and-policy legislation.
  • The legislation, known as the rescissions package, passed the Senate 51-50 with Vance casting the tie-breaking vote amid some Republican dissent.
  • The law features popular measures such as removing taxes on tips and increasing the child tax credit, but it has drawn criticism for slashing $1.2 trillion from Medicaid and food assistance programs.
  • Trump called the measure the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' and said, "It's been received so well I don't think I have to" travel extensively to promote it.
  • Democrats plan to make the law a major midterm election issue, viewing its Medicaid and assistance cuts as harmful, while Republicans defend it as fulfilling promises and improving fiscal responsibility.
