- The Trump-backed bill has split the Republican Party as senators have continued to argue over key provisions in the proposed legislation that stands to overhaul government taxes and spending. On Monday the Senate began a “vote-o-rama” on changes to the bill after barely advancing it past a procedural hurdle over the weekend.
President Donald Trump’s sweeping tax-and-spending proposal, branded the “Big Beautiful Bill,” entered a crucial session in the Senate Monday, promising massive changes to taxes, federal spending, and the future regulatory landscape. But even as Trump champions the legislation as a legacy-defining win, deep fractures within the Republican Party and growing opposition from business leaders like Elon Musk stand to threaten its path forward.
