Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, M.D., a current member of the U.S. Congress representing Iowa’s 1st district, has taken to social media to express her views on the "One Big Beautiful Bill." In a series of tweets, she outlines the bill's objectives and potential consequences if not passed.

On July 3, 2025, Rep. Miller-Meeks stated that "The One Big Beautiful Bill is how we rebuild what Biden broke. It delivers tax relief, border security, energy dominance, and eliminates waste, fraud and abuse." This tweet highlights her belief in the bill's ability to address various national issues.

In another tweet posted shortly after on the same day, she warned against voting against the bill by stating that it would mean supporting " A $4 trillion tax increase, the largest in US history A 22% tax increase for the average taxpayer A 20% tax hike on small businesses." This suggests significant financial implications for taxpayers and businesses if the bill does not pass.

Further emphasizing her point on July 3, 2025, Rep. Miller-Meeks reiterated that opposing the bill equates to endorsing "the LARGEST tax hike on middle-income families and small businesses in American history." Her message underscores her concern about the financial burden on these groups.

Mariannette Miller-Meeks has served in Congress since replacing Dave Loebsack in 2021. She previously held a position in the Iowa Senate from 2019 to 2021 and was born in Herlong, California. Currently residing in Le Claire at age 67, she graduated from Texas Christian University with a BSN in 1976.
