House GOP pushes ‘big’ budget resolution to passage, a crucial step toward delivering Trump’s agenda
SUMMARY: House Republicans, with President Trump’s support, passed a budget blueprint aimed at $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and $2 trillion in spending reductions, despite opposition from Democrats and concerns within the GOP. The vote was 217-215, with some Republicans uneasy over potential cuts to programs like Medicaid. Democrats criticized the plan, calling it harmful to American families. The budget’s passage is a crucial step in advancing Trump’s agenda, but it faces more hurdles, including committee hearings and Senate approval. Republican leaders insist that key programs will be protected as the final details are negotiated.
