Republican House Lawmakers Narrowly Pass Signature Budget Bill

WASHINGTON, DC - JULY 3: (EDITOR’S NOTE: Audio/music licensing is not included.) U.S. Speaker of the House Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) celebrates with fellow House Republicans during an enrollment ceremony of H.R. 1, the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act at the U.S. Capitol on July 3, 2025 in Washington, DC. The House passed the sweeping tax and spending bill after winning over fiscal hawks and moderate Republicans. The bill makes permanent President Donald Trump’s 2017 tax cuts, increases spending on defense and immigration enforcement, and temporarily cuts taxes on tips, while at the same time cutting funding for Medicaid, food assistance for the poor, clean energy, and raising the nation’s debt limit by $5 trillion.
