The Senate—by a razor‑thin 51–50 margin with Vice‑President J.D. Vance breaking the tie—approved President Trump’s 887‑page “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” advancing its sweeping package of tax cuts, social spending cuts, defense and immigration provisions . The bill extends Trump‑era tax breaks, rolls back clean‑energy incentives, trims Medicaid and SNAP, adds massive border enforcement funding, and would increase the national debt by trillions—putting nearly 11.8 million Americans at risk of losing health coverage . Democrats are gearing up to make it a centerpiece of their 2026 campaign, calling it deeply unpopular.
