Media Said The Big Beautiful Bill Was Dead. Trump Proved Them Wrong
The passage of the House of Representatives Thursday of the “Big Beau Bill” of President Donald Trump flies in the face of the claims of the media according to which he would not pass the deadline of Trump’s July 4.
The Chamber adopted the version of the Senate of the “Big Beautiful Bill”, alias the “BBB”, defying the media according to which a recalcitrant group of GOP defectors would return the bill to the Senate with changes, compromising an adoption of the day of independence.
“The Chamber and the Senate will have to solve their different versions and negotiate a unified version of the bill. (Or the Chamber could accept the Senate changes by wholesale and go to a final vote – which is unlikely.)”, Wrote Natalie Daher d’Axios.
A unified agreement on the version of the Senate between the two chambers, however, is exactly what happened, because the room sent the version of the Senate of the bill to the Bureau de Trump.
Politico also put doubt on the capacity of the GOP to cross the finish line in time. (Related: The `Big and Beautiful Bill ” from Trump has just changed the game on immigration)
“He wants it on his desk by July 4 – just a week from today,” wrote the point of sale on Friday.
“A small problem with this:” Les Républicains “” Big, beautiful bill “are in tatters”, as our colleagues from the Newsletter Inside Congress in Politico writes this morning. Yes, technically, there is always a path to respect this self-imposed deadline.
The Washington Post joined the choir, suggesting that “the easy part is over” after the Senate adopted its version of the bill on Tuesday.
“”[T]He Bill will go to final approval by the end of the week. The process seems fast – this is not the case. It can be delayed at many points by selected groups. There were several moments in the Johnson speaker when Bills seemed to be moving gently to be rolled and subjected to a frantic renegotiation, “warned Wapo.
Now that the Senate has adopted the Massive Bill for President Trump’s tax and immigration, he must adopt the Chamber. However, the president of the Mike Johnson room and his lieutenants have a jumper road in front to respect their self-imposed deadline. https://t.co/c4lx6h3yzp

Aside from an eight -hour episode of the leader of the Hakeem Jeffries House minority, the process was fairly fast.
Chamber Mike Johnson, the head of the majority of the Senate, John Thune and Trump, who would have been a “omnipresent force” behind the adoption of the bill, managed to appease the concerns of tax hawks and members of the Caucus of the Freedom Chamber to bring them to sign.
The bill finally adopted 218-214, with only the republican representative of Kentucky Thomas Massie and the Republican representative of Pennsylvania, Brian Fitzpatrick, joining the Democrats of the Chamber to vote no.
