Trump Celebrates Historic Legislative Victory with Tax Cuts and Spending Cuts Amid Controversy Over Health Care and Food Assistance Losses

• Share on:

On Friday, President Donald Trump signed a controversial multitrillion-dollar tax and spending bill into law, receiving near-unanimous support from Republican lawmakers. The legislation, which extends Trump's previous tax cuts and cuts Medicaid and food assistance, is projected to add $3.3 trillion to the deficit and increase the number of uninsured Americans by nearly 12 million. Democrats criticized the bill as a giveaway to the wealthy, with plans to mobilize against it in the upcoming midterm elections, highlighting its divisive nature and potential impact on low-income families.
