Whether the American public comes to see the “Big Beautiful Bill” as “beautiful” remains to be seen. A June 26 Quinnipiac poll found 29% of voters support the bill, 55% opposed it, and 16% did not have an opinion. What’s clear is that Democrats will hold the bill against Trump during the 2026 midterm election campaign season.

The "Big Beautiful Bill"​ that President Trump signed into law​​ last week will cut $355 million in federal funds that were slated for construction on the Mass Pike.
