US EditionSenate to begin marathon vote series on Trump's "big, beautiful bill" as GOP eyes July 4 deadline
- The Senate began a marathon voting process on President Trump's 'One Big, Beautiful Bill' on Monday in Washington, D.C., aiming for a July 4 deadline.
- This followed tense weekend negotiations and a 16-hour bill reading, with Senators Thom Tillis and Rand Paul opposing due to Medicaid cuts and tax concerns.
- The bill combines nearly $4 trillion in tax cuts, significant border and defense spending, and major reductions to Medicaid and safety net programs.

- The vote series could reshape key Senate dynamics, making Tillis's North Carolina seat a top Democratic pickup and exposing GOP vulnerabilities ahead of the 2026 election.
