US EditionHouse Budget Committee rejects Trump agenda bill in major setback for GOP leaders
- House Republicans failed to pass a 1,116-page budget bill with tax breaks and spending cuts on May 16, 2025, in a House Budget Committee vote.
- Conservative Republicans blocked the bill seeking steeper Medicaid and green energy tax credit cuts, while some Democrats opposed on grounds of health and social program reductions.
- The bill aims to lower spending by over $1 trillion largely through work requirements for Medicaid and SNAP recipients and provides significant tax deductions and credits favoring higher earners.
- The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office projects 7.6 million fewer insured and 3 million fewer SNAP recipients monthly if the bill passes, while Rep. Chip Roy warned, "Something needs to change or you're not going to get my support."
- The failure stalled Speaker Mike Johnson's plan to pass the bill before Memorial Day, suggesting ongoing intra-party negotiations and uncertain prospects for the package's House approval.
