Crowd reacts while an electronic display board displays the result of the vote count during a vote in the House Chamber of the US Capitol in Washington, DC, USA, on July 3, 2025. The US House of Representatives passed Donald Trump's tax and spending bill this Thursday, allowing lawmakers to meet the president's self-imposed July 4 deadline after negotiating all night long. The House or Representatives met to vote on H.R. 1, the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Ac. 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, increase spending on defense and immigration enforcement and temporarily cut taxes on tips, while at the same time cutting funding for Medicaid, food assistance for the poor, clean energy and raises the nation’s debit limit by $5 trillion.
