Republican-friendly groups make millions of dollars promote support for Trump's tax agenda

A leading Republican-friendly group supports President Trump’s “One, Big, Beautiful Act”, ready for a $4 million advertising buy to help guide the Senate efforts through the Senate, after many Republicans expressed concerns about legislation.

The first-ever American Prosperity Plan for CBS News is the plan for the Senate to focus on Mr. Trump’s agenda after the Republican-controlled Senate nearly passed the Republican LED house last month.

The group said the messaging from AFP included “videos and digital ads that will be played on cable, connected TV and other digital platforms.” The group's TV commercials will initially be aired in North Carolina, Louisiana, Maine, Idaho and the District of Columbia, but can be expanded further.

"The sooner the Senate advances the bill, the sooner Americans start seeing the relief they need most," Brent Gardner, the group's chief government affairs officer, said in a statement. The statement also noted that the group was very aware that as the process was used to quickly track the progress of the bill: "The hills to climb will only get steeper."

What is crucial to the Republican bill is continue The key part of the Tax Cuts and Employment Act, a legislative trademark for Mr. Trump’s first term. But the broad bill passing the House also includes Medicaid job requirements, raising debt ceilings and a range of other major measures, which are politically difficult to pass even if the Senate Republican majority is relatively strong.

"Look, I want to vote. I'm trying to cut taxes. I used to vote for tax cuts. I hope the tax cuts are permanent, but at the same time, I don't want to raise the debt ceiling by $5 trillion," said Rand Paul, a GOP Senator of Kentucky. "Faced with Margaret Brennan."

New ads from the AFP include testimonials that not only show the impact of the 2017 tax cuts, but what could happen if Congress unhappily takes action to expand these early changes and “encourage the Senate fiscal hawks to find spending offsets to further eliminate wasteful biden-ersen-eartence programs,” according to details released by the AFP. ”

So far, Congress has strongly resisted Trump's agenda legislation. Although most Senate legislation usually requires bipartisan support because of the restrictive thresholds in the chamber, Republican leaders are using a procedural line that will allow them to pass bills alone with the strength of a partisan majority. There has been a messaging deadlock in the bill, which could play a major role in mid-2026.

“Senate Republicans are doing everything they can to eliminate health care and soaring costs for hard-working families, all of which bring huge tax rulings to billionaires,” Senate Democratic campaign spokesman Maeve Coyle said in a recent statement. “Under Senate Republicans’ leadership, millions of people are at risk of losing health insurance – and voters will be held accountable in the 2026 ballot box.”

The Republicans don't need every senator to vote for the bill to pass, as the party's successful 2024 election saw the right on the right and ended with a total of 53 seats. But losing support from only four Republican senators may be doomed to drive.

"The Senate will be divided, but focus on the unified position of Republicans, which will push the bill forward - permanent tax cuts, energy abundance, security boundaries, and elimination of waste, fraud and abuse," Gardner said in a statement.
