Trump’s ‘big beautiful bill’ clears first Senate hurdle
The US Senate, under the control of the Republic, is a comprehensive bill of tax cut and expenditure of President Donald Trump during a marathon weekend session, marked with political drama, division and long delays because the democrats try to slow down the passage path of the legislation.
The MPs voted 51-49 to discuss in 940-page Megabill and Trump’s two Republicans participated in the democrats and opposed the president’s best migration, border, tax segment and military priorities.
Trump greeted the “Great Victory” for “big, big, beautiful bill” on social media.
Republican leaders and Vice President JD Vance to support the measure to convince the last minute waiting after the closed doors after the delay, the democrats asked Megabill to be read out loudly in the room – a task that could delay the beginning of the discussion in the afternoon.
The Democrats say that the bill tax cuts will benefit the rich at the expense of social programs for low -income Americans.
After the bill has been read, the deputies will begin to discuss about the legislation for up to 20 hours. This will follow a marathon change session known as “Rama-A-Rama” before the Senate vote. MPs said they hoped to complete the bill on Monday.
The vote on Saturday, Vance, Senate majority leader John Thune, and other senior Republicans, tried to convince the legislation to support the legislation.
A senior White House official said Trump watched the vote from the Oval Office late in the night.
Megabill, as president, will expand 2017 tax cuts, which are the main legislative success of Trump in the first period, will reduce other taxes and increase expenditures on military and border security.
The non -Partisan Joint Tax Committee issued an analysis that predicts that Senate Bill’s tax provisions will reduce government revenues of $ 4.5 trillion (A6.9 trillion $) and increase the government debt of USD 36.2 trillion.
White House, this month, the annual deficit of the legislation will reduce 1.4 trillion dollars, he said.
Elon Musk, the richest person in the world, shifted to the invoice that will terminate tax cuts for electric vehicles produced by the car manufacturer Tesla.
By calling the bill as “completely crazy and destructive”, he faced the risk of firing a lawsuit with angry Trump at the beginning of this month before he withdrew from Musk’s discourse.
“The latest Senate draft bill will destroy millions of jobs in the United States and will do tremendous strategic damage to our country!” Musk wrote in an article about the social media platform X.
The Democrats will focus on the fire forces with changes aimed at reversing republican expenditure cuts in programs that provide food aid to the elderly, poor and disabled people and programs that provide food aid to low -income families.
The bill will also increase the debt ceiling of the Treasury department in the coming months to increase trillions of dollars to potentially default the country’s debt.
If the Senate passes the bill, Trump will return to the House of Representatives for the Final Passage before signing the law. The house passed the version of the invoice last month.
