The US Congress has passed President Donald Trump’s $4.5 trillion ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ in a narrow 218–214 House vote, delivering a major legislative win in his second term. The 800-page bill enshrines permanent 2017 tax cuts, introduces new tax breaks, and funds his immigration crackdown. Despite internal GOP divisions—two Republicans voted against it—and total Democratic opposition, GOP leaders secured support after overnight lobbying. The White House confirmed Trump will sign the bill Friday at 5 pm. Though seen as a landmark conservative win, Democrats are expected to campaign hard against the bill in the 2026 midterms.
