Trump wins 'phenomenal' victory as Congress passes flagship bill
- On July 3, 2025, Congress passed President Donald Trump's flagship tax and spending bill, marking a major political victory.
- The bill extends Trump's 2017 tax cuts, includes large Medicaid and food assistance cuts, and funds a military and immigration crackdown.
- The legislation passed the House by a slim margin of 218-214 and was approved in the Senate with a 51-50 vote, where Vice President JD Vance broke the tie.
- It commits $4.5 trillion to tax relief, cuts $1.1 trillion mainly from Medicaid, and may cause 17 million to lose insurance coverage, Moody's warned.
- The bill cements Trump's second-term agenda but raises concerns about growing deficits and potential hardship for low-income Americans.
