US EditionRepublicans wrestle with economic priorities
- House Speaker Mike Johnson and Republicans are drafting Trump's economic plan called the 'big, beautiful bill' as of May 2025 in Washington.
- The GOP is evolving from its traditional emphasis on tax reductions and limited government intervention toward policies that address the needs of working-class voters who rely on federal assistance programs.
- The plan includes $4.5 trillion in tax reductions alongside $1.5 trillion in cuts to government spending, but internal disagreements persist over proposed Medicaid reductions and modifications to the SALT deduction.

- The final bill will define the Republican economic path amid tight party unity needed and criticism from Democrats branding it as favoring the wealthy.
