House Republicans Push Through Controversial Tax and Spending Bill Amid Internal Strife Washington, D.C. — House Republicans passed a multitrillion-dollar package of tax breaks and program cuts after an all-night session, marking a significant legislative win for President Donald Trump. The bill, described as a cornerstone of Trump’s economic agenda, faced fierce opposition from Democrats and protests outside the Capitol. Despite internal divisions, with some Senate Republicans publicly opposing the reconciliation package, GOP leaders secured a narrow House majority. A tentative deal for a $40,000 SALT deduction helped sway blue-state Republicans. The legislation now heads to the Senate, where its fate remains uncertain due to ongoing Republican discord and concerns over its impact on the economy and national debt.
