Senate to begin marathon vote series on Trump's "big, beautiful bill" as GOP eyes July 4 deadline

- The vote-a-rama allows unlimited amendments, driven by partisan messages amid a narrow Republican majority racing to meet a July 4 deadline.
- The legislation proposes tax reductions totaling around $4 trillion, allocates $350 billion toward border and national security measures, implements $1.2 trillion in cuts primarily affecting Medicaid and food assistance programs, and controversially removes several green energy tax incentives.
