Congressman Rudy Yakym, representing Indiana's 2nd District since 2022, shared updates on his recent legislative efforts through a series of tweets. His posts highlighted ongoing work to deliver economic relief and significant legislative developments aimed at benefiting various groups, including families and small businesses.

On May 14, 2025, Yakym tweeted: "Good morning! We’ve been going all night to make sure we deliver real, lasting relief to hardworking Hoosiers, families, seniors, small businesses, and farmers." This message underscored the commitment to providing substantial support across different sectors in Indiana.

Later that day, he announced a key development in tax legislation: ".@WaysandMeansGOP just passed our portion of the One, Big, Beautiful Bill out of committee." The bill aims to extend and expand the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act while preventing a significant tax increase. It also proposes no taxes on tips and overtime and seeks to make the Child Tax Credit permanent.

In another tweet from May 14th, Yakym reiterated the importance of this legislative action: ".@WaysandMeansGOP passed our 'One, Big, Beautiful Bill,' an essential step in @HouseGOP’s process to deliver tax cuts to American workers, families, farmers, and small businesses." This indicates a concerted effort by House Republicans to implement widespread tax cuts.

Rudy Yakym was born in 1984 and resides in Granger. He graduated from Indiana University South Bend with an AS degree in 2009 and a BS degree in 2011.
