What’s in the latest version of Trump’s big bill moving through the Senate
- On Tuesday, the Senate narrowly approved President Trump's $4.5 trillion bill with a 50-50 vote, broken by Vice President JD Vance's tiebreaker.
- Republican Senators justify the bill to prevent a post-December tax hike from expiring Trump-era tax breaks and allocate about $150 billion for border enforcement and defense funding.
- The Congressional Budget Office estimates the bill's $4.5 trillion in tax cuts will increase deficits by nearly $3.3 trillion over a decade, with unprecedented Medicaid reductions projected to remove millions from coverage.
- Following Senate approval, the bill allocates $350 billion for border security, including $46 billion for the U.S.-Mexico wall, making ICE the highest-funded law enforcement agency.
- After Senate approval, the bill returns to the House for consideration before potentially increasing the national debt limit by $5 trillion and leaving 11.8 million more Americans uninsured by 2034, according to the CBO.
