Rep. Jason Smith, a U.S. Congressman representing Missouri’s 8th district since 2013, used his social media platform on July 25, 2025, to promote "The One, Big, Beautiful Bill," highlighting its impact on tax relief for various groups in the United States.

In a post made at 15:01 UTC, Smith stated: "The One, Big, Beautiful Bill delivers historic tax relief for workers, families, farmers, seniors, and small businesses. The Ways and Means Committee has traveled out to Las Vegas, Nevada to hear directly from Americans about how the pro-worker tax relief delivered in The One,".

Later that day at 18:57 UTC, he reiterated the committee's outreach efforts: "The Ways and Means Committee is in Las Vegas to hear from working class Americans about how The One, Big, Beautiful Bill will put more money in their pockets."

At 19:15 UTC on the same day, Smith contrasted Republican actions with those of Democrats regarding tax policy: "Democrats voted multiple times to raise taxes on hardworking Americans and deny working class families tax relief that will give them more financial security. Republicans delivered The One, Big, Beautiful Bill to stop the largest tax hike in American history and put more money".

Smith has served as a member of Congress since succeeding Jo Ann Emerson in 2013 and previously held office in the Missouri House of Representatives from 2005 until his election to Congress. Born in St Louis in 1980 and currently residing in Salem at age 42, Smith holds degrees from both the University of Missouri (BS) and Oklahoma City University (JD).
