Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” was adopted by the US Congress, sending it to the President to sign.
The controversial package of tax alleviating and expense reductions has erased its last obstacle while the House of Representatives controlled by the Republican narrowly approved the bill with a vote of 218-214.
The bill provides tax alternatives Mr. Trump Promised during its electoral campaign in 2024, reduces food and food security programs and zens of dozens of green energy incentives.
According to the Office of the Budget of the Non-Somino Congress (CBO), it will lower tax revenues by $ 4.5 billion over 10 years and add $ 3.4 billion to the debt of $ 36.2 billion in the United States.
But despite the concerns about the price of the 869 -page bill – and its blow in health care programs – the Republicans have largely aligned themselves in support, with only two rebels on the vote.

Each Democrat in the Congress voted against the bill, exploding it as a gift to the rich who will leave millions of uninsured Americans.
The president of the Mike Johnson Chamber made the closing argument of the Republicans for the bill, saying to the Congress: “For everyday Americans, it means a real and positive change they may feel.”
Earlier, the Democrat Manager of Hakeem Jeffries made a record speech of eight hours and 44 minutes against.
“The objective of this bill, the justification of all the cuts that will harm every day Americans is to provide massive tax loss for billionaires,” he said.

It will tighten the registration standards, will institute a work requirement and write a financing mechanism used by states to stimulate federal payments.
Changes could leave nearly 12 million people without health insurance, according to the CBO.
