#NFPWatch 🌖Trump signs his megaproject law amid fireworks to commemorate the occasion It is the celebration that President Donald Trump has been waiting for.

After weeks of persuading Republicans to support his national megaproject law —despite persistent concerns about cuts to Medicaid, the increase in the deficit, and political risks— Trump signed the measure into law in the South Garden of the White House on Friday afternoon. He transformed the traditional July 4th picnic into a celebration of the country's independence and his victory in Congress, the enthusiasm of the day to commemorate the most decisive legislative triumph of his second term. The festivities included a flyover of bombers —a nod to recent military attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities— and will feature a fireworks show at the National Mall later. However, in other respects, this moment is just the beginning of Trump's campaign to sell his law to an American public that, according to polls, remains skeptical about its content.

The law expands the tax cuts that Trump first approved in 2017 during his first term, as well as creating new cuts, with a total cost of US$ 4.5 trillion. It also increases funding for immigration law enforcement and defense.
