So we had announced earlier this week that the President of the United States was likely to get the Senate to vote for the big beautiful bill, some version of that. And they did, in fact, pass a preliminary vote earlier this week. But they have now passed an actual big, beautiful bill. One big, giant, beautiful bill. We'll discuss the variegated beauties of this bill in just
What does the Senate’s “big beautiful bill” contain and why is it crucial for Trump’s agenda?
Just a moment. But essentially, what happened is that Republicans lost three votes on this bill. Those votes would be Rand Paul, Tom Tillis, and Susan Collins. Those are the three they dropped. And then JD Vance came in and had to break the tie. Here's what that sounded like.
The yeas are fifty. The nays are fifty. The Senate being evenly divided, the Vice President votes in the affirmative. The bill as amended is passed.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the Senate's 5150 action puts Republicans on the verge of locking in Trump's top legislative priorities: extended tax cuts, new tax breaks, reductions in Medicaid spending, and more money for defense and border in border enforcement. They are using their full but narrow control of Congress to pull money from safety net programs and the clean energy industry and redirect it to national security and taxpayers' wallets. And we will get to the clean energy of this, the AI aspects of this bill, because there is a rift emerging in the Republican caucus between some of the tech bros and sort of the rest of the Trump coalition, Elon Musk and President Trump are at it again.
Well, the Senate passed the measure with no votes to spare following a 215 to 214 nail biter in the House in May. Senate Majority Leader John Thune described the vote as an extraordinary day for our country and highlighted the cybersecurity funding and spending cuts. He said we were very excited to be part of something that was going to make America stronger, safer, and more prosperous. And it really starts with an agenda that President Trump laid out when he was running last year. R Rand Paul, of course, opposed the legislation's five trillion dollar debt limit. Tillison Collins objected to Medicaid funding changes that reduce coverage for some people in some states. Senator Lisa Murkowski was the person who they were able to convince to join with the Republican majority in this particular case.
She was really on the fence.
