Claims suggesting that President Trump could delay or cancel elections via his tax-and-spending bill are unfounded and inaccurate. A viral graphic circulating on social media suggested that if the Senate approved the bill, Trump would gain such powers. However, both legal experts and representatives from House leadership have clarified that the bill does not grant the President authority over election timings, which would inherently be unconstitutional. Furthermore, the graphic was removed by the liberal group, Being Liberal, after acknowledging inaccuracies in their claims.
The bill does not give Trump power to delay or cancel elections, an action that would be unconstitutional.
House Speaker Mike Johnson's spokesperson confirmed, 'The bill obviously does not provide the President of the United States with the authority to cancel or delay elections.'
