JD Vance Touts 'Big, Beautiful Bill' in Georgia

Vice President JD Vance defends tax cuts from the 2025 bill, highlighting an average $3,086 tax reduction for Georgians amid criticism over Medicaid and hospital funding cuts.

  • On Thursday, Vice President JD Vance promoted President Donald Trump's 'big beautiful bill' in Peachtree City, Georgia, calling Senator Jon Ossoff a 'far-left liberal' in Washington, D.C.
  • Republicans say they will use the 'big, beautiful bill' as a central 2026 campaign message, restoring permanent tax breaks for individual and business taxpayers and adding new deductions for tips and overtime.
  • Analysis published Aug. 13 by the Tax Foundation found the average Georgia taxpayer will see federal taxes reduced $3,086 in 2026, while the Congressional Budget Office estimated 10 million could lose coverage.
  • After his Ohio and Georgia stops, Vance warned last month that 'Anybody who voted against it, I think they ought to pay a penalty,' as Senate Republicans plan to make Senator Jon Ossoff's vote a top 2026 campaign issue to expand their 53-seat majority.
  • Some changes would not take effect until after the 2026 midterm elections, and defeating Ossoff remains pivotal as Senate Republicans seek to expand their 53-seat majority amid a divided Republican primary field after Governor Brian Kemp opted out.
