Trump announces Friday signing ceremony for his 'One Big Beautiful Bill'

President Donald Trump announced Thursday evening that he would have a signing ceremony for his "One Big Beautiful Bill" at the White House on Friday, which will be open to all members of Congress.

The House of Representatives passed the megabill in a 218-214 vote, which marked a significant achievement for House Speaker Mike Johnson and Trump, who corralled Republican hardliners all day Wednesday in order to get the necessary support.

Senate Republican leaders also worked hard this week to pass the upper chamber's version of the bill, which was sent back to the lower chamber on Tuesday. Both chambers were able to pass it by the self-imposed July 4 deadline.

"The Republicans in the House of Representatives have just passed the 'ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL ACT,'" Trump posted to Truth Social. "Our Party is UNITED like never before and our Country is 'HOT.' We are going to have a Signing Celebration at the White House tomorrow, at 4 P.M. EST. 

"Together, we will celebrate our Nation’s Independence, and the beginning of our new Golden Age," he continued. "The people of the United States of America will be Richer, Safer, and Prouder than ever before. Thank you to Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, and all of the wonderful Republican Members of Congress who helped us deliver on our Promises, and so much more. 

"Together, we can do things that were not even imagined possible less than one year ago," he added. "We will keep working, and winning — CONGRATULATIONS AMERICA!"

The post marks the first comments the president has made since the bill's passage, other than a few brief words as he was boarding Air Force One, and comes as he heads to Iowa for an address ahead of the nation's 249th birthday.
