Internet reports that Republican U.S. Senator Rand Paul, who voted against the "Big and Beautiful Act" during the Senate vote, said on social media,"Throughout the entire voting process, I worked all night to prevent Congress from increasing our debt. I met with Vice President Vance and reiterated my proposal that I would vote for it if the bill included a 90 percent debt ceiling reduction." "I am fighting for the American people and against our runaway debt." Musk left a message "Bravo" to express his support for Paul.
