US EditionHouse works into the night as Republicans push ahead on Trump's 'big bill'
- House Republicans, led by Speaker Mike Johnson, continue advancing President Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' despite insufficient support to pass as of mid-May 2025 in Washington.
- The bill faces internal party conflicts due to disagreements between fiscal conservatives demanding deeper spending cuts and moderates concerned about Medicaid reductions affecting working-class Americans.
- Lawmakers are negotiating provisions including $5 trillion in tax breaks, nearly $800 billion in Medicaid cuts with new 80-hour monthly work requirements, and changes to food aid via SNAP over the decade.
- A nonpartisan analysis projects that between 7.6 and 9.5 million individuals may lose their health coverage under the proposed bill, which also features a $4 trillion increase in the debt ceiling and introduces tax exemptions on tips and interest from car loans.
- Speaker Johnson aims to pass the bill by Memorial Day and send it to the Senate, while Democrats and some Republicans strongly oppose it, calling it an assault on Medicaid and health care programs.
