I hear fireworks more at Christmas and New years than I do fourth of July here in I Imperial Valley. Maybe in 3 years 2026 we'll have a HUGE freedom fest being America's 250th birthday

it's illegal where I live AND to be truthful too dangerous not willing to take the chances I'd rather go where the fire department is in charge AND experience with fireworks 🎆🎇

It's literally like taking paper money and catching fire to it! Then hope it's not a dud. I live a mile and a half from where "Fire in the Sky" is being held so I can just step out and watch them.

I enjoy just hearing the month long war zone inflicted on us by those who do.

No I won't, but my neighbor, and his family always invite me to their 4th of July party, and it has awesome food, people, and fireworks. And it's next door, so I don't have to drive or park. Just 300 feet away.

They should support the president and the constituents who voted them in. That includes us who believe you work for what you get. No handouts!

The cuts didn't go deep enough. Ex. Musk's criticisms about how the EV mandates would be cut (good thing), but no cuts to the auto industry subsidies (bad thing). The liberal/socialist media is already lying to folks how this bill is throwing grandma under the bus. Proof? Look at the 'No' comments.

This is a good start and the best that could be passed. Don't let perfect be the enemy of great.

It is a wealth transfer Bill: From the poorest Americans to the richest.

Please don’t do that! Trump promised no cuts to Medicaid but her we are just 5months into his term and he is doing that!

Help for the rich to get richer and it puts more average people in worse situations. Don't cut Medicaid or Social Security

The only way they can make this look like it doesn’t completely destroy the deficit is by making certain tax cuts and spending increases “temporary.” I support the tax cuts, as long as they are met with subsequent spending cuts. The true burden of government is what it spends, not what it taxes.

We will vote every last Republican out of office. Stealing food and Healthcare from [anyone] to profit the rich is an act of war and shall be treated as such.

It would increase the national debt by about 3 trillion dollars, and take away necessary infrastructure, all while lowering taxes on the wealthy.

As a customer of the Affordable Care Act I find it appalling that the two senators from Missouri would even consider supporting this bill that will potentially triple my monthly premium and also cut benefits. They should be ashamed of themselves for bowing down to the President. Checks and balances

You are kidding, right? Missouri congressmen need to read their job descriptions and represent their constituents. Voting for this bill is a betrayal of the will of the people.

Millionaires and billionaires don't need a tax break as much some people need health care. Also, social security's fund needs fixed which would have been a better use for that $45 million he wasted on a parade. Trump has all his priorities wrong.

They were elected to represent their constituents, ALL CONSTITUENTS not just those whom they perceived voted for them. Don't let anyone hold their vote hostage.
