Multitrillion-dollar resolution unlocks path to deliver Trump’s sweeping tax cut and immigration plan
The House Republican speaker, Mike Johnson, muscled through a multitrillion-dollar budget framework that paves the way for Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill”, just hours after a rightwing rebellion threatened to sink it.
The resolution passed in a 216-214 vote, with just two Republicans – fiscal hawks Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Victoria Spartz of Indiana – joining all Democrats in opposition.
