Senate Narrowly Passes Trump's Sweeping Reform Bill

President Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' narrowly passed the Senate after Vice President JD Vance broke a tie, with all Democrats and three Republicans voting against it due to concerns about steep Medicaid cuts and increased national debt. The bill makes the 2017 Trump tax cuts permanent, enacts significant reductions to Medicaid, food assistance, and green energy funding, repeals certain renewable energy subsidies, and eliminates some firearm taxes. It also boosts border security spending and includes provisions to protect public lands and enhance farm safety nets. Supporters call the bill historic tax relief advancing Trump's America First agenda, while critics warn it could lead to millions losing healthcare and add $3.3 trillion to the national debt over ten years. Despite House Speaker Mike Johnson's plans for swift passage, internal GOP divisions over Medicaid cuts and costs make its future uncertain. President Trump has threatened to support primary challengers against Republicans who oppose the bill's final version.
