According to Jinse Finance, during the Senate vote on the "Big and Beautiful Act," U.S. Republican Senator Rand Paul, who voted against the bill, stated on social media, "Throughout the voting process, I worked through the night to prevent Congress from increasing our debt. I met with Vice President Vance and reiterated my proposal that if the bill included a 90% reduction in the debt ceiling, I would be willing to vote in favor." "I am fighting for the American people, standing against our out-of-control debt." Musk commented "Bravo" to express his support for Paul.
