Rep. French Hill Applauds House Passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Rep. French Hill (AR-02) voted to pass the “One Big Beautiful Bill” Act, a major legislative victory that delivers real results for central Arkansas and includes two of his own bills focused on helping Arkansans save, invest, and build a stronger future.

“This bill is a critical win for families and small businesses in central Arkansas. It prevents the largest tax hike in American history and puts us back on the path to smart, sustainable economic policy. It reflects tried and true conservative, pro-growth principles — spending discipline, tax relief, and restoring the integrity of programs that many Arkansans rely on like Medicaid and SNAP. It also sends a clear signal that House Republicans are serious about governing and delivering results for our constituents and for the American people.

“I am proud that two of my legislative priorities are included in the reconciliation bill that passed the House today. One helps Arkansas families save for health care, and the other provides tax relief for Americans wrongfully detained abroad.”

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act includes two bills authored by Rep. Hill:

  • The Catch-Up Act – Allows married Americans over age 55 to make catch-up contributions to their spouse’s Health Savings Account (HSA), giving families more flexibility and financial security to plan for health care costs.
  • The Stop Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act - Provides tax relief for Americans held hostage or wrongfully detained abroad by postponing deadlines and authorizes the IRS to revoke tax-exempt status from nonprofits that materially support terrorist organizations.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act also:

  • Secures America’s Southwest border through increased enforcement and infrastructure
  • Strengthens national defense readiness and military investment
  • Reduces burdensome regulations that stifled growth and harm small businesses
  • Unlocks domestic energy production that will result in lower prices for Americans
  • Protects programs that vulnerable Americans rely on, including Medicaid and SNAP, by reducing waste and abuse
  • Makes President Trump’s tax cuts permanent for working families and small businesses
