House GOP reveals Trump's tax breaks for tips, overtime and car loans in bill, but costs run high
Briefly

House Republicans have unveiled a substantial tax reform package named 'THE ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL,' which proposes $4.9 trillion in costs, partly funded by cuts to Medicaid. The legislation aims to prolong tax benefits from Trump's first term and introduces various new deductions such as a tripling of the SALT deduction. While some in the GOP support the bill, opposition arises from within the party, notably from Sen. Josh Hawley, who warns against cutting Medicaid to finance tax breaks, indicating potential political ramifications for the GOP's future.
Republicans need to UNIFY, Trump posted on social media before departing for a trip abroad to the Middle East. Trump said when he returns to Washington, we will work together on any and all outstanding issues, but there shouldn't be many. The Bill is GREAT. We have no alternative, WE MUST WIN!
One key Republican, Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri, implored his party not to touch Medicaid, arguing that cutting health care to pay for tax breaks is both morally wrong and politically suicidal.
