House Republicans are pushing for a vote on Trump's tax and spending cuts package by July 4, despite internal dissent. The bill aims to reform safety net programs and includes tax cuts, but faces concerns about its impact on Medicaid and potential delays.

Rep. Don Bacon defended Trump's $4 trillion tax bill, arguing its middle-class benefits while addressing GOP concerns over Medicaid cuts and mounting deficit fears.

The Tax Policy Center, which provides nonpartisan analysis of tax and budget policy, projected the bill would result next year in a $150 tax break for the lowest quintile of Americans, a $1,750 tax cut for the middle quintile, and a $10,950 tax cut for the top quintile. That’s compared to what they’d face if the 2017 tax cuts expired.
