After more than 26 hours of negotiations and the historical record of the amendment, the US Senate managed to approve the tax reform of Donald Trump using the vote of the Vice President, JD Vance. A giant tax decrease by more than $ 4 billion saves its penultimate obstacle to harsh and numerous changes in order to fulfill the president’s desire to sign the law on July 4, the Day of Independence of the United States.
The vote made with a draw to 50 votes between SIE and NOS after the rescant leaders spent all night, trying to offer changes in Senator rebel Lisa Murkovsky, who threatened to bring down the projectThe key was in a huge reduction in healthcare expenses intended for residents with lower income, one billion dollars to compensate for part of a huge increase in the deficit that will produce tax drops. Murkovsky asked to save his state of Alaska from the consequences of these abbreviations, as well as from Tagus to help in eating to lower income.
The agreement will include more funds for all states that have a fraud coefficient and errors in paying assistance more than 13%, which encourages local authorities that do not want to lose these national subsidies in order to increase the amount of money spent on error and fraudulent payments. “This is legislative madness,” said Senator -Democrat Amy Klobuchar.
The approved text supports the keys: reducing $ 4 billion, focused on the highest income, a strong reduction in health and a hard blow to renewable energy sources, which will lose almost all the help approved during the Joe Biden mandate. It also allows treasures to release debt again, avoiding the suspension of payments in mid -August.
Now the last obstacle is the House of Representatives, where the final vote will be held. In its first procedure, the law was approved only by voting, and Changes in the Senate did not set out many deputies of the radical wing.Which has already threatened to lie down for the first time. Now, in addition, no more changes can be made if they want to arrive on time before the date of July 4, so Trump will have to press as much as possible on their congressmen in order to avoid disagreement.
