Here's What’s in the GOP's ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’
- The U.S. House of Representatives narrowly passed President Trump's tax and budget reconciliation plan, called the 'One Big, Beautiful Bill,' on May 22, 2025.
- The bill reflects Trump's campaign promises and aims to balance energy development and tax cuts, but Democrats oppose it for cutting Medicaid and environmental protections.
- The legislation includes over 1,000 pages with provisions such as no tax on tips and overtime, expanded child tax credits, and $700 billion cuts to Medicaid affecting millions.
- Votes fell mostly along party lines with 215 Republicans in favor and all House Democrats opposed, criticizing it as a large tax giveaway that harms healthcare and nutrition for many.
- The bill is now headed to the Senate where amendments and negotiations may occur, with concerns about increasing national debt and its impact on public programs continuing.
