The United States — United States House of Representatives passed President Donald Trump's $4.5 trillion tax breaks and spending cuts bill, a key legislative victory for his second term.

To offset revenue loss, it imposes $1.2 trillion in cutbacks to United States — Medicaid and food stamps, along with a major rollback of green energy tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act. The United States — Congressional Budget Office estimates the bill will add $3.3 trillion to the deficit and leave 11.8 million more people without health coverage.
