According to a Fox News report, House Republicans are already discussing contours for a potential second “big, beautiful bill” advancing President Donald Trump’s agenda.
The Republican Study Committee (RSC), a 189-member group that serves as the House GOP’s policy engine, is launching a working group to explore a potential second budget reconciliation bill, Fox News Digital has learned.
It marks the most coordinated push yet by congressional Republicans to advance a second sweeping legislative package aligned with GOP leadership’s broader agenda.
“We must capitalize on the momentum we’ve generated in the first 6 months of a Republican trifecta in Washington,” RSC Chairman August Pfluger, R-Texas, told Fox News Digital. “To fulfill the promises we made to the American people, conservatives must begin laying the groundwork for the second reconciliation bill to ensure we continue to drive down the cost of living and restore America’s promise for future generations.”
From Fox News:
House Republicans left Washington on Wednesday to kick off a five-week recess period, where they’re readying to sell the benefits of their first massive agenda bill to their constituents.
Meanwhile, Pfluger also directed lawmakers part of the new working group to begin reaching out to colleagues, conservative senators, and GOP organizations about potential policy proposals for a new bill, Fox News Digital was told.
The goal of the new group is to create a framework for what a second “big, beautiful bill” could look like, and to recommend that framework to GOP leaders.
The first bill was a massive piece of legislation advancing Trump’s agenda on taxes, the border, immigration, defense, and energy.
It made much of Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) permanent, while imposing new work requirements on Medicaid and food stamps, among other measures.
After passing the House and Senate, Trump signed it into law during a celebratory event on the Fourth of July.
