Trump implores Republicans to unify behind his big tax cuts bill
- President Donald Trump urged House Republicans on Tuesday to unify behind his multitrillion-dollar tax cuts bill ahead of planned votes this week.
- The bill incorporates sweeping tax breaks, Medicaid and food stamp cuts, and reverses Trump’s campaign promise on local tax deductions, causing notable GOP opposition.
- Trump criticized GOP holdouts as grandstanders and fools, praised Speaker Mike Johnson, and called himself a cheerleader to rally party support during a session lasting over an hour.
- The comprehensive 1,116-page legislation, bearing a name linked to Trump’s signature policy efforts, proposes tripling the SALT deduction limit to $30,000 for joint filers earning up to $400,000 annually and is projected to increase the national debt by approximately $3.3 trillion.
- Despite stalled negotiations and significant resistance within the slim House Republican majority, the bill may pass the House this week before moving to the Senate, where further changes are expected.
