The Iowa speech came on the same day that the House gave final approval to Trump’s tax cuts and Medicaid cuts legislative package.
House Pass “Big and Beautiful Invoice” then heads to Trump’s desk
The Republican sweeping bill to cut taxes and cut benefits programs like Medicaid passed the House and now heads to President Donald Trump’s desk.
- Trump proposed to host the UFC Championship fight at the White House, honoring the National Park in its 250th anniversary.
- In an Iowa speech, Trump also suggested that farmers be able to ensure longtime migrant workers are prevented from their removal under his stricter immigration enforcement policies.
- Trump also said that he signed a legislative package for tax cuts and Medicaid cuts, which would sign at a patriotic ceremony with military pier flying overhead.
President Donald Trump told the Iowa crowd that he would sign a massive legislative packaging at a patriotic ceremony on July 4th, focusing resources in the national parks and hosting the ultimate fighting championship match at the White House.
“The incredible birthday victory we achieved a few hours ago is unlikely to have a better birthday present for America when Congress passes one big beautiful bill to make America great again,” Trump said in a bid to call for a “salute to the American celebrations” at the Iowa trade fair in Des Moines.
White House spokesman Caroline Levitt said after his speech that Trump was “dead” about holding a mixed martial arts battle.
Trump said he would sign the bill at the White House, added by House Speaker Mike Johnson, r-louisiana. Senate Majority Leader John Tune, R-South Dakota. And many Congressional Republicans. Trump said the military pilot who successfully bombed Iran will be guests on military plane overpasses during a patriotic ceremony.
“We’re going to fly the B-2, F-22 and F-35 just above the White House,” Trump told reporters before flying to Iowa. “We sign a beautiful plane flying just above our head.”
Trump promises amendments to immigration enforcement for farmers
One of Trump’s top priorities is improving border security and deporting illegal immigrants to the country. But after hearing concerns that farmers are losing the migrant workers they rely on, Trump outlined how Homeland Security Secretary Christy Noem is developing legislation that effectively allows farmers to allow their workers to stay.
Trump said similar Rennience will be expanded to hotel and leisure industries.
“We don’t want to take all the workers off the farm,” Trump said. “We have to work with the farmers.”
“We’re going to take charge of you,” Trump told the crowd.
A series of state fairs begin in Iowa: Trump
Trump – who has long embraced the themes and images of patriotism to complement his “America First” agenda – had already had a controversial taxpayer-funded military parade on the streets of Washington, D.C., June 14 marked the 250th anniversary of the US military and fell to Trump’s 79th birthday.
In Iowa, Trump announced his efforts to create the Great American State Fair, a concept that he touted on the 2024 campaign trail as “a unique year exhibition featuring pavilions from all 50 states.” He said the following year, events at fairgrounds across the country would peak at the National Mall in Washington, DC.
“We’re coordinating what we call the Great American State Fair and starting in Iowa,” Trump told the cheers. “We’re going to have a lot of people.”
Trump says he will hold a UFC fight at the White House
To boost national parks, Trump proposed raising admission fees for foreigners as part of his “America First” strategy.
“All of our national park battlefields and historic locations will host special events at American Honor 250,” Trump said. “And I think we’ll even fight the UFC. We’re going to fight the UFC on the White House property.”
“Championship Fight – Full Fight,” he added.
No strangers in the mixed martial arts scene Trump has attended several events in the past, including UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden in New York City after winning the 2024 presidential election. UFC President Dana White also featured Trump on the stage on the final night of the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
The first UFC battle held under the ownership of White and his partners took place at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City. Trump “gives us a start when no one spoke to us,” White told Fox News in 2018.
Voluntary conservation efforts
Trump signed an executive order during his flight to Iowa, creating the Make America Beautiful Commission in the “National Park Service and Forest Service” to overcome what he called “mismanagement, excessive regulation, and neglect of daily maintenance.”
The committee includes Secretary of Defense Pete Hegses, Secretary of Agriculture Brook Rollins, Director General of Environmental Protection Agency, and the Office of Business and Budget.
Through voluntary conservation efforts, Trump is seeking to expand access to public lands and retrieve fish and wildlife populations.
“Land use restrictions stripped hunters, fishermen, hikers and outdoorsmen of access to public lands that belong to them,” the order said.
The National Park Service has $23 billion in postponed maintenance on roads, trails and historic landmarks, the order said. The Forest Service’s postponed maintenance is $10.8 billion, the order said.
