President Donald Trump is gearing up for a grand Independence Day ceremony to celebrate the signing of a significant new bill, dubbed the “One Big, Beautiful Bill.” This event is set to take place on July 4 at 5 p.m. ET, right outside the White House.
During a recent press briefing, Trump revealed exciting details about the ceremony, which will feature impressive military flyovers from advanced warplanes like the B-2, F-22, and F-35. “It’s going to be a great day,” he said, highlighting the spectacle of these military aircraft soaring overhead as he signs the bill.
The bill, which recently received final approval from the House, is seen as a major victory for Trump and his party. House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, along with many other Republican lawmakers, will join Trump for the signing. The House passed the legislation with a narrow margin of 218-214, after Johnson worked hard to secure the necessary votes.
Trump expressed confidence in the bill’s appeal, stating, “It was very easy to get them to a ‘Yes.’” He touted it as the largest tax cut in history and emphasized its benefits for national security and immigration reform. He believes it covers a wide range of important issues, making it a landmark piece of legislation.
The bill’s passage comes after a heated debate, with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries attempting to delay the vote by speaking for over eight hours. However, his efforts were ultimately unsuccessful.
Johnson praised the bill, saying it would strengthen the country and benefit all Americans. He described it as a cornerstone for what he calls America’s new Golden Age.
This signing ceremony is just the latest in a series of victories for Trump. Recently, he approved military strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities, which he claimed significantly weakened Iran’s nuclear capabilities.
As the nation prepares to celebrate Independence Day, the anticipation for this event is building, with many looking forward to the combination of patriotic festivities and significant legislative achievements.
