The Montana Public Policy Center strongly endorses President Donald J. Trump’s One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act, a transformative piece of legislation. This bill represents a historic opportunity to deliver on the priorities Montanans and Americans nationwide demanded in the last election: economic growth, energy independence, secure borders, and a competitive tax system that supports families and businesses.
The One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act aligns with Montana’s values by promoting policies that empower our state’s small businesses, energy producers, and working families. By making permanent and expanding the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, increasing the small business tax deduction, and restoring 100% immediate expensing, this legislation will unleash investment and job creation in Montana’s communities. Additionally, the bill’s commitment to unleashing American energy through smart reforms—such as repealing the methane tax and unlocking oil and gas development—will bolster Montana’s energy sector, a cornerstone of our economy.
Furthermore, the bill’s robust investments in border security, including funding for a border wall, additional ICE officers, and Customs and Border Protection, will restore law and order to our immigration system, addressing a critical concern for Montanans. The inclusion of infrastructure modernization, such as the $12.5 billion investment in FAA air traffic systems, ensures Montana’s connectivity and economic competitiveness in a rapidly changing world.
We urge Montana’s congressional delegation and the entire House of Representatives to swiftly pass the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act. This legislation is a bold step toward securing America’s prosperity, strengthening our economy, and delivering on the promises made to the American people.
