President Donald Trump and Republican leaders are rushing to pass a major tax bill before July 4, despite concerns about its impact on healthcare coverage. The bill, which Trump calls “big” and “beautiful,” has faced criticism for its potential effects on millions of Americans’ health insurance.
According to MSNBC, the proposed legislation would mainly benefit wealthy Americans through tax cuts while putting nearly 12 million people at risk of losing their health insurance. Republican senators worked through the weekend to move the bill forward, although they were still finalizing the actual text by Sunday evening.
