Trump got his tax bill over the finish line. Now he has to sell it to voters
Briefly

Trump achieved a significant legislative victory by passing a 900-page tax and policy package through Congress, known as the "One Big Beautiful Bill," by the Fourth of July deadline. This bill includes many of his campaign promises, such as perpetuating 2017 tax cuts and increasing funding for military and immigration enforcement. Despite its passage, challenges arise as polls indicate a general disapproval among voters. Critics point out the Republican focus on process over communication of benefits, alarming projections show potential negative impacts on health coverage and an increase in the deficit by $3.4 trillion over ten years.
Trump muscled a 900-page package through a closely divided Congress. The tax and policy bill, dubbed the "One Big Beautiful Bill," encompasses much of his second-term agenda.
The package fulfills several of Trump's campaign promises, making many of his 2017 tax cuts permanent, adding provisions for no tax on tips and overtime, and increasing spending on immigration enforcement.
