U.S. Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) issued a statement after supporting the motion to proceed to consideration of H.R.1, known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, on Saturday.
Johnson criticized current conditions in the country, attributing them to the Biden administration and Democratic leadership. “Biden and the Democrats left behind enormous messes that we are trying to clean up – an open border, wars, and massive deficits. After working for weeks with President Trump and his highly capable economic team, I am convinced that he views this as a necessary first step and will support my efforts to help put America on a path to fiscal sustainability,” Johnson said.
Johnson has served as U.S. Senator from Wisconsin since 2010. He won his seat by defeating Russ Feingold in 2010 with 51.9% of the vote compared to Feingold's 47%. He was re-elected in 2016, again defeating Feingold with 50.2% of the vote against Feingold's 46.8%. In 2022, Johnson secured another term by winning against Mandela Barnes with 50.4% of the vote versus Barnes' 49.4%.
