U.S. senators are locked in a marathon voting session as Republicans push to pass former President Donald Trump's controversial $3 trillion spending bill—a move critics say could slash social welfare programs and balloon the national debt. 💥 The bill, dubbed the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' by Trump, aims to extend expiring tax cuts, boost military spending, and fund aggressive border security measures, including mass deportations.
But the proposal is splitting the GOP, with some senators wary of cutting $1 trillion in health care subsidies for low-income Americans ahead of the 2026 midterms. 🗳️ Democrats, meanwhile, are united in opposition, calling the plan 'economically reckless.'
The Senate floor has turned into a legislative slog, with only 14 amendments voted on in seven hours during a 'vote-a-rama' session. 🎬 Think 'Lord of the Rings' marathon, but with more spreadsheets.
Despite the chaos, Trump's influence over the GOP is expected to secure the bill's passage in the narrowly divided Senate. Will this reshape America's fiscal future—or become a midterm liability? Stay tuned. 📉🇺🇸
