What Is the ‘Big Beautiful Bill’?
The ‘Big Beautiful Bill’, as branded by Trump, passed with a 51-49 vote, with some Republicans crossing party lines to support the Democrats. The bill proposes:
- $350 billion in total funding for border and national security
- $46 billion allocated to expanding the U.S.-Mexico border wall
- $45 billion for 100,000 migrant detention facility beds
- An extension of the 2017 Trump-era tax cuts
- Increased funding for the U.S. military and veterans’ programs
The legislation supports Trump’s pledge to execute the largest mass deportation operation in U.S. history, targeting undocumented migrants.
Trump added that the bill will reduce wasteful spending, support Medicaid for the truly needy, and revitalize the U.S. economy.
Political Impact
This bill marks a key milestone for Trump’s campaign as he builds momentum for the upcoming 2024 presidential election. The Republican base has praised the bill’s strong stance on immigration and national defense, while critics have raised concerns over human rights and fiscal responsibility.
