Queens lawmakers condemn Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ as dangerous and unjust

Elected officials across Queens have criticized the Trump Administration and Republican lawmakers for passing the “One Big Beautiful Bill” last week, stating that the federal budget bill will have “dangerous and rippling effects” across New York City and State.

President Donald Trump signed the bill into law on July 4 after the House narrowly voted 218-214 to approve it on Thursday. Earlier last week, Vice President JD Vance cast a tie-breaking vote to break a 50-50 tie in the Senate.
