Trump pushes Congress to pass big bill before July 4th
President Trump wants lawmakers to postpone or cancel their upcoming recess in order to pass his tax-cut-and-spend legislation. The 4th of July recess for Congress is right around the corner, but the president wants his so-called “big beautiful bill” finished first.

Republicans are racing to meet their self-imposed Independence Day deadline and send the legislation to the White House.
