With Concessions at the last minute and strong warnings of Trump, the Republican holdingouts left their opposition to the rescue of the “A big nice bill” This is of central importance for the GOP agenda. The house started a debate before midnight and was mentioned with the vote with 215-214 the coordination with the rejection of the Democrats. Next up to the Senate with long negotiations.

“To just express it, this calculation brings the Americans back to win” Johnson, R-La.

The result limits an intensive time on the Capitol Hill with days of private negotiations and hearings from the public committee, many of which take place around the clock in a row. The Republicans insisted that their extensive package over 1000 pages was what the voters they were looking for a white house for the Congress and Trump. They believe that it will be “rocket fuel” as one expressed during the debate for the restless US economy.

Trump himself demanded actionVisiting the Republicans of the house at the meeting on Tuesday and the host of GOP leaders and the holdingouts for a long meeting on Wednesday in the White House. The government warned of the vote in one Pointed statement This failure “would be the ultimate betrayal”.

After the legislation passed, Trump posted Trump on social media: “Many thanks to every Republican who was right about this historical calculation! Well, it's time for our friends in the United States Senate to get to work.”

The Senate hopes to be able to complete its version until July fourth.

Central to the package, the commitment of the GOP is to extend around 4.5 trillion dollars of tax breaks that they constructed in Trump's first term of office in 2017, and temporarily added new ones, for which it was classified during his 2024 campaign, including No taxes on tipsPayment of overtime, car loan and others.

To compensate for some of the lost tax revenue, the Republicans focused on changes To Medicaid And the food stamps program, mainly by imposing Work requirements for many of those who receive services. There is also a massive one Rollback from the tax industry around green energy From the inflation reduction of biden era.

In addition, the package with 350 billion US dollars hits new expenses, with around 150 billion dollars going to the Pentagon, including the new president ” Defense sign Golden Dome ”and the rest for Trumps Mass shift and border security agenda.

In total, the impartial congress household office estimates 8.6 million people fewer people, and 3 million fewer people per month would have advantages for schnapps pattern stamps with the proposed changes.

The CBO said Changes to MedicaidFood marks and other services would earn reduced expenditure of 1 trillion US dollar. Households with the lowest income in the USA would see that their resources decrease while the highest would see a thrust.

House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries From New York, Americans read letters who describe how the program reduced them. “This is a big ugly bill,” he said.

As a minority without the voices to stop Trump's package, the Democrats offered passionate speeches and procedural movements instead to limit their advance. As soon as the House Floor has been reopened for debate, the Democrats forced a vote for distribution. It failed.

They want to exist in “The Dark of Night,” said Repet. Pete Aguilar, D-Calif.

Others called it a “big, bad calculation” or a “large, broken promise”.

For Johnson, the package before his deadline for the Memorial Day was an enormous political buoyancy, with a few voices that should save from his slim GOP majority, whose rated Republicans have their own contradictory priorities.

Conservatives, especially from the House Freedom Caucus, were available for steeper expenses to remove the costs Nation's debt 36 trillion dollars.

At the same time, more moderate and centrist GOP legislators were careful with the changes to Medicaid, which could lead to lost health care for their voters. And some feared that the tax benefits for renewable energies in many states that they use to invest in green energy projects will hinder.

A major problem was the costly deal with GOP legislators from New York and other high tax states to quadruple the deduction of $ 10,000 for state and local taxes to $ 40,000 for income of up to $ 500,000, which was included in the end product.

For every faction that Johnson tried to satisfy, another would roar in opposition.

GOP leader A 42-page change With a number of revisions.

The changes included a faster implementation of the Medicaid work requirements that will begin in December 2026 and not in January 2029, and a faster return of the production tax credits for clean electricity projects, both of which were applied for by the conservatives.

Also hidden in the final version were some unexpected additions -including a 12 billion dollar fund for the Ministry of Homeland Security, to reimburse states that help federal officials with deportations and border security.

And in an allusion to Trump's influence, the Republicans described a proposed program for new children's savings that have changed from Maga accounts -money for growth and progress -to simply “Trump” accounts for “Trump”.

The MP Erin Houchin, R-EN. “We can unlock the” golden age “America,” she said, repeating the president's own words.

The Chief Holdouts seemed to be in harmony in the early morning. Rep. Ralph Norman, Rs.c., said they had “some improvements”.

But two Republicans voted against the package, including Rep. Thomas Massie from Kentucky, a deficit observer who had been publicly criticized by Trump. “This calculation is a debt bomb,” he warned.

And MP Andy Harris, the chairman of the Kaucus, who wanted more time, voted against the present. Some others have not chosen.

The final analysis of the costs and economic effects of the overall package will continue to be assessed.

In addition to the expansion of existing tax reliefs, it would increase the standard income tax deduction to $ 32,000 for common filers and increase the tax credit for children to $ 2,500. For older adults of certain income levels, there would be an extended deduction of 4,000 US dollars to meet taxes on the income of social security.

In order to reduce expenses, those who would have to fulfill the Medicaid Health Care, which are triggered without relatives, 80 hours a month with a job or other activities in the community.

Similarly, the requirements for the 80 hours a month would have to meet 80 hours a month to meet grocery brands through SNAP through SNAP up to 64 and not 54 years and without relatives. In addition, some parents of children would have to meet the work requirements older.

The Republicans said they wanted to have a waste, fraud and abuse in the federal programs.
