Trump’s ‘big, beautiful’ tax bill passes US House vote, Speaker Johnson reveals key features of the Act

House Republicans lifted US President Donald Trump’s $4.5 trillion tax breaks and spending cuts bill to final passage Thursday, overcoming multiple setbacks to approve his signature second-term policy package before a self-imposed Fourth of July deadline. The tight roll call, 218-214, came at a potentially high political cost, with two Republicans joining all the Democrats in opposition. GOP leaders worked overnight, and the president himself leaned on a handful of sceptics to drop their opposition and send the bill to his desk to become law.
