House Lawmakers Hold Overnight, Last-Minute Meeting on Budget Bill
- House Republicans held a last-minute Rules Committee meeting at 1 a.m. On Wednesday to finalize President Trump's spending bill ahead of a House floor vote that day.
- The meeting followed President Trump's Tuesday visit to Capitol Hill, where he urged GOP members to unite behind the bill, despite deep divisions within the party.
- The bill, called a "big, beautiful bill" by Trump, includes extending expiring tax cuts and contentious Medicaid changes like added work requirements for some adults and parents.
- The nonpartisan CBO reported the bill would increase the deficit by nearly $4 trillion over ten years while Republicans hold a narrow majority and face opposition from ultra-right Freedom Caucus members.
- The bill's passage remains uncertain as conservatives demand steeper spending cuts on Medicaid and food stamps, moderates voice concerns, and Democrats vow unified opposition.
