Budget office says Trump’s tax law will add $3.4 trillion to deficits, leave 10 million uninsured

UNITED STATES, JUL 21 – The budget law extends 2017 tax cuts, imposes Medicaid work requirements, and funds ICE expansions, projecting a $3.4 trillion deficit increase over the next decade, the Congressional Budget Office said.

  • On July 4, President Donald Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which the CBO says will add $3.4 trillion to the debt by 2034.
  • Amid looming tax hikes, Republican leaders said the 887-page package extends Trump's 2017 tax cuts and adds deductions for tips and overtime.
  • According to the CBO, the law will increase the number of uninsured Americans by 10 million by 2034.
  • House Speaker Mike Johnson said `No concerns at all. In fact, it’s going to gain seats for us,` and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer declared `This finalized analysis confirms it: Republicans' bill is the ultimate betrayal.`
  • Meanwhile, Medicaid expansion recipients will need to prove 80 hours of work monthly to access coverage, and agencies can start applying for reimbursements now.
