House Ways and Means Committee advances GOP tax bill
- Following a lengthy hearing in Washington, D.C., the House Ways and Means panel gave a party-line thumbs-up to the GOP's tax plan on Wednesday.
- The approval followed an overnight session that began Tuesday afternoon amid Democrats' attempts to amend the bill, all of which were rejected.
- The 26-19 party-line vote advanced the bill to the Budget Committee, where it will merge with other spending legislation to form the 'One, Big, Beautiful Bill.'
- The package is estimated to increase deficits by $3.8 trillion over ten years and permanently maintains the Trump-era tax cuts while providing targeted tax relief for families, small businesses, and manufacturers.
- The bill is poised for full House passage by Memorial Day and subsequent Senate consideration, signaling a major step in advancing the GOP’s economic agenda.
