Medicaid, Trump and Senate
Digest more
WASHINGTON—Senate Republican leaders left members from both ends of the party unsatisfied with their version of President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” touching off a fast round of new negotiations to hit their self-imposed deadline of putting the bill on his desk by July 4.
Republican leaders are aiming for quick negotiations over needed changes to the newly unveiled Senate tax bill which lacks the votes to secure majorities in both chambers as written.
The Senate Finance Committee is revising the proposed Medicaid cuts in the GOP’s “big beautiful bill” — a move sure to spur vehement opposition from hospitals.
Proposed changes have reportedly angered some House Representatives, and differing views on the legislation could make passing Trump's bill difficult.
