Texas Republican Congressman Pat Fallon joins Fox Across America With guest host Paul Gleiser to explain why he supports President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill”, despite the objections by some in his party that it does not go far enough in cutting wasteful government spending,
“I met with Mike Johnson, Speaker Johnson last night, a small group. We meet every now and again. And he was telling us that he had a great talk with Elon, and he’s committed to making sure that we, the Republicans, retain control of the House and what have you. And it’s, you have to, you know, I think that we can all be sympathetic to the frustrations that a CEO of a company would feel when he moves at the speed of Elon. He moves at speed of innovation, and the federal government does not. So, yes, if you’re going to grade it on what Elon Musk could do, yeah, the big beautiful bill is not to that speed. But you’re gonna grade it what the federal government has ever done, it’s a huge success and it’s great first step. And when you look at, you’d be hard for us to find in history any bill that cuts spending of approximately a trillion and a half dollars, granted over a decade, but government always inevitably grows. And we’re actually going to cut spending.”
