Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Clears Congress In Narrow Vote, Cementing Second-Term Agenda

‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ brings tax cuts, mass deportation funds, and welfare rollbacks in major political win for Donald Trump

Washington, D.C. | July 4, 2025 —President Donald Trump scored a defining legislative victory as his flagship tax and spending package—nicknamed the “One Big Beautiful Bill”—narrowly cleared Congress, reinforcing his second-term vision with sweeping economic and immigration reforms.

The 218-214 House vote came after an intense political standoff, all-night negotiations, and a near nine-hour filibuster-style speech from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who condemned the legislation as “one big, ugly bill” that harms ordinary Americans.

“One of the most consequential Bills ever. The USA is the ‘HOTTEST’ Country in the World, by far!!!” Trump declared on social media following the vote.

The 869-page mega-bill, which now heads to Trump’s desk for signing on Independence Day, delivers on core Trump campaign promises:

$4.5 trillion to extend first-term tax cuts
Significant boosts to military and border security funding
Funds earmarked for mass migrant deportations
Rollbacks on clean energy subsidies and EV incentives

Speaker Mike Johnson called it a foundation for “America’s new Golden Age,” while critics warned it would add $3.4 trillion to the national deficit over the next decade.

🧾 Welfare Cuts and Medicaid Rollback Trigger Backlash

While conservatives hailed the bill’s defense and tax provisions, it faces harsh criticism over its historic cuts to social safety nets:

Largest rollback of Medicaid since its 1960s inception
An estimated 17 million people may lose insurance coverage
Closure of rural hospitals and drastic food stamp cuts

These elements have stoked fears among moderate Republicans, some of whom worry about re-election prospects amid growing voter dissatisfaction.

🗳️ A Divided GOP, A Mobilized Trump

With fiscal hawks demanding deeper spending cuts and centrists alarmed over public backlash, the vote required intricate maneuvering. Johnson and Trump spent weeks negotiating, lobbying, and pressuring undecided lawmakers.

Despite this, opposition remains vocal.

“This disgusting abomination is not about improving the quality of life of the American people,” said Jeffries, who anchored Democratic resistance in the House.

⚡ Wider Impact: Elon Musk Feud and 2026 Elections

The bill’s cancellation of green energy and EV subsidies has also ignited a public spat between Trump and Elon Musk, once a vocal supporter.

Democrats are counting on the bill’s unpopularity with low- and middle-income voters to gain momentum for the 2026 midterm elections, potentially using it as a rallying cry to flip the House.

Meanwhile, Trump continues to consolidate power over the GOP, bolstered by recent Supreme Court wins and foreign policy breakthroughs like the Iran-Israel ceasefire.
