The Senate just passed Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ that includes $4.5 trillion in tax cuts. Here’s what else is inside

The result was crowned at an unusually tense weekend in the Capitol, the distinctive legislative priority of the president on the brink of approval or collapse. In the end, the number was 50-50, when the Vice President JD Vance threw a tie vote.

Three members of the Republican Senate – Tom Telese of North Carolina, and Susan Collins from Min and Rand Ball from Kentucky – joined all Democrats to vote against it.

“In the end, we accomplished the task,” said the majority of the Senate, John Thun, of South Dakota, said after that.

It is not expected to give up the difficulty of Republicans, who have a majority in congress, to wrestle the bill to this point. The package is now returning to the House of Representatives, where the spokesman Mike Johnson warned of Louisiana, members of the Senate against not repairing what his room has already agreed. But the Senate made changes, especially for Medicaid, and risks more problems in the future. The leaders of the Republican Party at home pledged to put it on the Trump office by the deadline on July 4.

It is a pivotal moment for the president and his party, as it was consumed by the 940 -page “beautiful law” law law, and whose official title was before the Democrats raised an amendment to the abstraction of the name. Republicans have invested their political capital in achieving power in Washington.

Trump admitted that it was “very complicated things” as the White House left for Florida.

He said, “I do not want to get crazy with the discounts.” “I don’t like discounts.”

Senate members work around the clock

What started as routine but hard-to-vote, in a process called Pott-A RAMA, ascended to a person all night where Republican leaders bought time to support support.

The fat roll in the room calls on feverish procedures to install the draft law. The scenes with a dark face played inside and outside the Senate Hall, amid an exhaustion.

Thun’s work around the clock, desperately arrived to obtain agreements at the last minute between those in his party that the draft law discounts in Medicaid would leave millions of other millions without care and the most conservative wings, which even wanted the most severe discounts to get rid of the deficit with tax cuts.

The leaders of the Republican Party had no room for sparing. The Thun cannot lose more than three members of the Republican Senators, and two – Tilis, who have warned that millions of people will lose access to medical health care, and Paul, who oppose the lifting of the debt limit by $ 5 trillion – has already indicated opposition.

Attention quickly turned into two major Senate members, Lisa Morkovsky of Alaska and Collins, who also raised concerns about health care discounts, as well as a loose alliance of four conservative Republican Senators who are pressing even for the most severe discounts.

In particular, Moraovsky became the subject of the attention of the Republican Party leaders, where they sat next to the conversations. Then all the eyes were on Paul after returning from a visit to the Thun’s office.

The Democratic Leader of the Senate Chuck Schumer from New York said that the Republicans “in a state of chaos because they know that the bill is very popular.”

An analysis of the non -partisan Congress budget office found that another 11.8 million Americans would become non -believers by 2034 if the draft law becomes a law. The Omani Central Bank said that the package would increase the deficit by about $ 3.3 trillion over the course of the contract.

The pressure built on all sides. Billionaire Elon Musk said that anyone voted in favor of the package should “hang his head in a shame” and warned that he would carry him against them. But Trump has also criticized the Republican Party, including Teles, who suddenly announced his own decision during the weekend not to seek to re -elect it.

Senators insist on changes

Few Republicans seemed completely satisfied with the emergence of the final package, either in the House of Representatives or the Senate.

Collins fought for the inclusion of $ 50 billion in the new rural hospital fund, among the members of the Republican Party, who worried that the discounts of Medicaid of the draft law will be destroyed and forced them to close.

While the fund’s amendment was refused, the ruling was included in the final bill. I still voted no.

Senator Mine State said she is happy to add augmented financing, but “difficulties in the draft law go beyond that.”

Mursovsky described the decision -making process as “painful”.

She secured judgments to spare Alaska and other countries from some discounts in food stamps, but her efforts to enhance medical aid removals are shortened. I voted yes.

What is in the big bill

Finally, the Senate Bill includes $ 4.5 trillion of tax cuts, according to the latest CBO analyzes, which makes Trump’s permanent rates for 2017, which will end at the end of the year if Congress fails to behave, with the addition of new rates that he made, including any taxes on advice.

The Senate package will return billions of dollars in the Green Energy Tax Group, which is warning of Democrats against eliminating wind and solar energy at the country level. It will impose discounts of $ 1.2 trillion, to a large extent on medical stamps and food, by imposing work requirements on physical people, including some greater parents and Americans

In addition, the draft law will provide pumping $ 350 billion in border security and national security, including deportation, and some pay for the new fees imposed on immigrants.

Paul said: “The unpleasant big bill has passed,” Paul said.

Democrats fight throughout the day and night

Unable to stop the march towards traffic, Democrats tried to withdraw the process, including reading the weekend to the full draft law.

Senator Patty Murray of Washington, Democrat at the credit committee, has caused special concern about the accounting method used by Republicans, which says that tax exemptions from Trump’s first term are now “current policy” and the cost of its extension should not be calculated towards deficit.

She said that this type of “magic mathematics” will not fly with Americans trying to balance their home books.
