The House voted 219-213 overnight Wednesday, after hours of delay, to advance President Trump's "big, beautiful bill" for debate before a final vote. GOP leaders had to overcome pushback over the Senate's changes.

By Wednesday evening, enough Republicans remained opposed to the Senate’s version of the bill to effectively stall its passage in the House.

The Senate passed President Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” July 1, giving the president his most significant legislative victory in his second term.
