Trump’s big bill faces next hurdle in Congress as GOP conservatives warn they may vote against it
- House Speaker Mike Johnson is advancing a large spending and tax bill amid growing GOP resistance in Washington, D.C. In May 2025.
- The bill includes work requirements for Medicaid eligibility starting in 2029 and proposals to raise the SALT deduction cap, causing intra-party disagreements.
- The package plans to reduce spending by over $1 trillion on health and food assistance programs while introducing new tax incentives, including a $4 trillion increase to the national debt ceiling.
- According to estimates from an independent budget analysis agency, the bill could result in a reduction of Medicaid coverage by more than 7.6 million people and decrease the number of monthly SNAP recipients by approximately 3 million; meanwhile, Rep. Chip Roy expressed his opposition, stating, "I wouldn’t support it."
- Uncertainty about the bill’s passage remains due to conservative holdouts demanding deeper cuts, tax adjustments, and internal GOP divisions complicating Johnson’s efforts.
