Email from Rep. Miller-Meeks Miller-Meeks Weekly Script June 22nd, 2025 WEEKLY SC℞IPT View as Webpage Rep. Miller-Meeks: America Is Back and So Is Manufacturing Made in America is more than a slogan. It is a promise of self-reliance, national security, and economic strength. And under President Trump’s leadership, that promise is being restored. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act is the boldest pro-manufacturing legislation in modern history. It puts American workers first by strengthening domestic supply chains, cutting bureaucratic red tape, and ensuring federal projects are built with American steel, American labor, and American innovation. For Iowa and our entire nation, this bill brings new meaning to “Made in the USA.”  In Southeast Iowa, we know what it means to build, to work, and to contribute. But for too long, Washington sacrificed American manufacturing on the altar of globalization. Critical jobs vanished overseas. Our supply chains became dependent on Communist China. And our rural communities paid the price. That ends now. As a former small business owner and 24-year Army veteran, I have made it my mission to restore American strength. My ONSHORE Act, now law, removes hurdles to get factories back on American soil. My legislation to expand diagnostics production ensures we never again rely on adversaries for life-saving supplies. And my employer-driven workforce training bill helps Iowans gain the skills they need for jobs that exist today, not bureaucratic fantasies.  The One Big Beautiful Bill builds on that work. It requires domestic sourcing for critical infrastructure, incentivizes U.S. production, and prioritizes American-made goods at every level of government procurement. That means more jobs, higher wages, and fewer vulnerabilities. I am proud to have voted for this legislation because I believe in Iowa. I believe in our people, our businesses, and our capacity to lead. American manufacturing is back. And with President Trump leading the charge and the One Big Beautiful Bill advancing in Congress, we are making “Made in America” a reality again, right here in Iowa. One Big Beautiful Muscatine Main Street Tour Great to be in Muscatine County this week for a One Big, Beautiful Main Street Tour! I’m visiting local and small businesses around the District to highlight how President Donald J. Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act will support their growth and success. First Stop: Wester Drug As a physician and longtime advocate for PBM reform, I proudly support the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. It bans spread pricing, increases transparency, and ensures fair reimbursement, real wins for Iowa’s independent pharmacies and the patients who rely on them. Second Stop: Relion Insurance From startup hurdles to Main Street expansion, local insurance access plays a big role in business growth. That’s why the One Big Beautiful Bill Act delivers powerful support, making the small business deduction permanent and doubling immediate expensing so employers can invest, hire, and grow right here in Iowa. Third Stop: Carpet One Small businesses create two out of every three new jobs. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act locks in the small business deduction and expands immediate expensing so places like Carpet One can grow and keep Iowa strong. Fourth Stop: Bobby's Asian Cuisine Bobby shared how eliminating taxes on tips and cutting taxes for family-run restaurants helps his staff and keeps his business thriving, and selling his top menu item, Pho. He used to run a restaurant on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington DC before moving to Muscatine 20 years ago. This One Big Beautiful Bill delivers real relief for hardworking Iowans like Bobby. Fifth Stop: Sal Vitale’s Italian Restaurant. Their homemade pizza is now headed to Hy-Vee shelves, an exciting milestone for a great local business. Tax cuts like the ones in the Big Beautiful Bill will help businesses like Sal's expand and thrive. Representing Iowa's First District Great visiting Heckman Family Farm in West Liberty. We walked the fields, talked about upcoming farm‑bill reauthorization, and highlighted how the One Big Beautiful Bill supports Iowa agriculture. Proud to stand with the farmers who feed our state and nation! Had a great meeting with the Greater Burlington Partnership and leaders from across Southeast Iowa to discuss expanding access to natural gas and the opportunities it creates. Business expansion and recruitment require dependable energy generation and delivery, and both businesses and residents want abundant, affordable energy. That’s why I supported the One Big Beautiful Bill Act to help deliver lower costs and reliable energy to Iowans everywhere. Sincerely, Dr. Mariannette Miller-Meeks Visit My Website ### Rep.
