Senate to begin marathon vote series on Trump's "big, beautiful bill" as GOP eyes July 4 deadline
- On July 2, 2025, the Senate began a marathon vote series on President Trump's 940-page 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act' in Washington, D.C.
- The bill combines $4 trillion in tax cuts with $1.2 trillion in Medicaid and food stamp cuts, fueling heated debate and Senate amendments.

- If passed, the bill moves to the House by Wednesday, where approval remains uncertain amid objections and a July 4 deadline pressures Republicans to finalize the legislation.
