‘Hidden Gems’ Inside Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill Will Advance Long-Sought Policy Goals

Everyone knows that the “big, beautiful” tax bill signed into law on the Fourth of July lowers tax burdens for families and businesses. It also averts a $4 trillion tax increase starting next year. That’s enough reason to heartily celebrate.What isn’t well known is that this new law doesn’t just change tax policy. It includes dozens of other long-sought policy goals — what I call “hidden gems.” Here is a list of some of the major policy victories:The law is the most aggressive federal advancement of school choice by allowing low-income parents to direct education dollars to private, charter, or Catholic schools that are better for their children.The law also expands eligibility for personalized medical savings accounts instead of conventional insurance. This allows working Americans to control their health care dollars.The law increases mining and drilling on federal lands to increase access to America’s natural resource supplies to end our dependence on the Middle East or China or Russia.The law formally ends the absurd Biden student loan forgiveness program, which forced taxpayers to swallow the costs of unpaid college loans.The law ends the electric vehicle mandate and phases out the Green New Deal, thus allowing Americans to buy whatever car they want.The law expands opportunity zones and extends tax benefits for investing in inner cities and economically depressed rural areas. (I thought Democrats cared about poor communities?)The law increases the tax to 8 percent on the near-trillion dollars of bloated university endowments — money that was never taxed. Is there a better way to tax the privileged rich?The law strengthens work requirements for Medicaid and food stamp recipients. History shows that work requirements end welfare dependency.The new law authorizes the sale of expanded spectrum to strengthen rural broadband, secure America’s technological dominance and reduce the national debt by nearly $100 billion.There’s much more to shout about, but these are some of the greatest hits in a big and beautiful bill that advances America’s freedom and prosperity. Expect the economy to grow at more than 3 percent in the years ahead, which will bend down the burden of our national debt. Is it the biggest consecutive victory in modern times? It may just be.Creators.com
