Detailed Analysis:
- Claim: The House GOP campaign arm is targeting Democrats holding politically risky seats for opposing the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act."

- Verification Source #4: Supports the claim that the House's sweeping budget plan is to advance President Donald Trump's agenda.

- Internal Knowledge: The name "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" is likely a rhetorical device used by Republicans to promote the bill and may not be its official name.
Supporting Evidence/Contradictions:
