Trump pushes hard for GOP to pass key legislation
Amid escalating tensions within the GOP, President Trump is intensifying pressure on Senate Republicans to pass his ambitious legislation referred to as the ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’ As the party faces a rapidly approaching deadline, there are tangible concerns from various factions regarding the bill’s provisions. Some Republicans find the proposed Medicaid cuts too severe, while others argue the cuts to clean energy funding are insufficient, prompting fears that the bill could splinter under these divisions. Trump, speaking via Truth Social, did not mince words, urging Senate members to lock themselves away until the deal is accomplished, proclaiming, “NO ONE GOES ON VACATION UNTIL IT’S DONE.” Such an ultimatum frames the urgency enveloping the Senate as they trudge through internal disagreements, eyeing a vote by the end of the week to secure the necessary 51 votes.
