Senate to begin marathon vote series on Trump's "big, beautiful bill" as GOP eyes July 4 deadline
- The Senate began a marathon vote series on President Trump's 'One Big, Beautiful Bill' in Washington, D.C. on June 30, 2025, aiming to meet a July 4 deadline.
- This legislative push follows intense weekend negotiations and opposition from Senators Thom Tillis and Rand Paul, who voted against advancing the bill due to concerns over Medicaid changes and tax cuts.
- Senators are permitted unlimited amendments, leading to a demanding 'vote-a-rama' with back-to-back votes designed to highlight opposition and test support, while Republican leadership urges members to prepare for votes this week.
- The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office projects that the legislation will increase the federal deficit by $2.4 trillion, Senator Jack Reed denounced it as a "big ugly betrayal of working families," and President Trump reacted to Tillis's decision not to run for reelection with the comment, "Great News!"
- Tillis announced he will not run again in 2026 after opposing the bill, increasing the competitiveness of his North Carolina seat and illustrating the political risks surrounding the bill's passage.
