U.S President Donald Trump is turning up the heat on Senate Republicans to pass his signature tax-and-spending package — dubbed the “Big, Beautiful Bill” — before the July 4 deadline. The legislation includes sweeping tax cuts, boosts to border security, and expanded child tax credits. But it also slashes Medicaid and food stamp funding, raising fierce opposition from Democrats who call it a “Big, Ugly Betrayal.”
With a $4.2 trillion projected impact on the national deficit, a blocked Medicaid tax provision, and wavering GOP senators, the bill’s future hangs in the balance. Can Trump rally the votes in time, or is this another legislative collapse in the making?
