WASHINGTON – The National Retail Federation today issued the following statement from NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay following the House vote to pass the Senate-amended reconciliation package. The measure now heads to President Trump’s desk for signature.
“As we prepare to recognize our nation’s 249th birthday tomorrow, today we want to celebrate Speaker Johnson and Majority Leader Thune for their strong leadership and steadfast commitment to getting President Trump’s ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ through Congress and to the president’s desk for his signature before the July 4th holiday.
“President Trump campaigned on a promise to revitalize the U.S. economy. This historic legislation ensures that his vision to push forward pro-growth policies and measures that rein in government spending becomes a reality to the benefit of American businesses and hard-working families for generations to come.”
As the leading authority and voice for retail, NRF will continue to champion policies that drive economic growth.
