Republicans have been deeply divided over the bill which would extend Trump’s 2017 tax cuts by tightening eligibility for food and health programs
US President Donald Trump’s massive tax and spending bill has cleared an important procedural hurdle in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives, when a gatekeeper committee approved the measure and set up a floor vote for passage to occur within hours.
Republicans have been deeply divided over the bill, which would extend Trump’s signature 2017 tax cuts, create new breaks for tipped income and auto loans, end many green-energy subsidies and boost spending on the military and immigration enforcement.
