Washington, D.C. – Yesterday, Congresswoman Carol Miller (R-WV) was joined by U.S. Chamber of Commerce officials, the Charleston Area Alliance, local manufactures, and business leaders for a roundtable to discuss the significant benefits secured by the One, Big, Beautiful Bill. This legislation makes permanent the successful 2017 Trump Tax Cuts and builds upon them. As a result, the average working family will pay $1,300 less in taxes in 2026. Additional benefits secured by the One, Big, Beautiful Bill include:

Families avoided a $1,700 tax increase and received an additional $600 tax cut.
Workers benefit from no tax on tips, no tax on overtime pay, no tax on Social Security, and no tax on car loan interest.
Tipped workers see pay increases of $1,300, while hourly workers gain $1,400.
Married seniors receive an additional $12,000 tax deduction.

“It was a pleasure to share what we accomplished with the One, Big, Beautiful Bill and how it delivers real tax relief for working West Virginians by making the Trump tax cuts permanent and protecting families and small businesses. I’m committed to continuing this work and delivering results that strengthen our economy and put West Virginia families first. I am grateful to everyone who joined us for this roundtable, including our partners from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the Charleston Area Alliance, and our host, Mike McCown and the team at Industrial Bolting,” said Congresswoman Carol Miller.

“We are grateful to Congresswoman Miller for being such a strong and consistent champion for our business community and for helping ensure that the voices of West Virginians are heard in Washington. As a business owner herself, Congresswoman Miller knows what it takes to run a business and that is one of the many reasons she is such a strong advocate for the business community. We also appreciate the U.S. Chamber of Commerce for their partnership in bringing this important conversation to our region. A special thank you to Mike McCown and his team at Industrial Bolting for hosting today’s forum and showcasing the strength of American manufacturing. Opportunities like this allow our business leaders to engage directly in meaningful dialogue and reinforce our shared commitment to economic growth across the Kanawha Valley and beyond,” said Mara Boggs, President & CEO of the Charleston Area Alliance & Chamber of Commerce.

“The U.S. Chamber of Commerce thanks Congresswoman Carol Miller for her leadership and support of the One Big Beautiful Bill. Rep. Miller voted to make permanent the 20 percent pass-through deduction for businesses such as sole proprietorships, partnerships, and S corporations. She also worked to ensure the largest tax increase in history did not take effect, providing businesses with the certainty they need to reinvest, hire more workers, and expand their operations. Her advocacy delivers real results for America’s job creators,” said Stephen McAllister, Vice President of the Eastern Region for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
