Donald Trump signed a legislative package of tax cuts and spending cuts, sparking controversy and criticism over the impact on health insurance.

In an Independence Day ceremony, Trump signed into law a massive package of tax cuts, dubbed the 'Big, Beautiful Tax Cuts Act', which will make the 2017 tax cuts permanent and affect millions of Americans. The bill passed with a narrow majority in Congress, but critics see it as a giveaway to the wealthy, predicting a negative impact on healthcare programs. Tensions have been heightened by a record-breaking speech by Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, who warned that the law would cost Republican votes in the upcoming election.
