Boyle Statement on CBO Analysis Showing Big Ugly Law Will Add Over $4 Trillion to the Debt
August 4, 2025
WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Brendan F. Boyle (PA-02), Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee, issued the following statement after the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released an analysis showing that Republicans’ Big Ugly Law will add more than $4 trillion to the national debt when factoring in interest costs:
“This new CBO analysis yet again confirms Republicans’ Big Ugly Law is as expensive as it is cruel. It explodes the deficit by over $4 trillion to pay for massive tax breaks for billionaires, while ripping health care and food assistance away from millions of Americans. It’s a disgraceful law that forces working families to pay the price so the ultra-rich can profit.”
