This week's Surge newsletter highlights significant political developments including the House's passage of a major bill titled the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. This bill features tax cuts, especially extending 2017 Trump tax changes, and introduces new benefits like tax-deductible auto loans for American-made cars. However, it also worsens conditions for low-income citizens by reducing food and healthcare benefits. Additionally, Speaker Mike Johnson successfully aligned conservatives around the bill, which the Congressional Budget Office warns favors wealthier households at the expense of lower income brackets.
The new megabill passed by the House could make auto loans for American cars tax-deductible, alongside providing benefits and downsides like reduced food access.
Speaker Mike Johnson adeptly navigated complicated negotiations to gain conservative support for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, passing it by a slim margin.
The Congressional Budget Office's analysis indicates that the richest will gain resources while the poorest will experience significant reductions in household resources.
