Debates on the budget bill initiated by Donald Trump have begun in the US Senate, with a final vote possible on Monday. Democrats insisted the thousand-page text be read in full, which delayed the discussions. The bill includes tax credit expansions and cuts to Medicaid and the SNAP program, and has been criticized by the Democratic opposition for favoring the wealthy. The Congressional Budget Office estimates an increase in the national debt of more than $3 trillion by 2034.
