House works into the night as Republicans push ahead on Trump's 'big bill'

- The bill proposes over $5 trillion in tax breaks and sizable cuts of nearly $800 billion to Medicaid and $290 billion to SNAP food aid.
- The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates 7.6 million people could lose Medicaid coverage and SNAP participation may drop by about 3 million monthly.
- Lawmakers aim to pass the bill by July 4 to raise the $36 trillion debt limit by $4 trillion and avoid a debt default amid a contentious debate.
