The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

Despite an uncertain future in the Senate, the bill should be a much-celebrated moment of rare bipartisanship in what is usually a cagey and divided House. While some opposition to the bill inevitably remains on both sides, moderates in the House have done what many deemed impossible and bridged the political divide for the benefit of the American people.

Politico

Establishment-critical narrative

Beyond its title, there's little to celebrate concerning the House's intentionally deceitful bill. Under the veil of taxation reduction, 91.5% of the bill's impact will not be found within the pockets of America's typical household. Rather, the legislation de facto expands welfare eligibility which is harmful from a workforce and immigration perspective. Once again, Congress continues to ignore the average American citizen.
