Breitbart: Senate Committee Makes Revisions to Trump's 'Big, Beautiful Bill'
Senate Committee Makes Revisions to Trump's 'Big, Beautiful Bill'
Republicans on the Senate Finance Committee have revised President Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill," proposing cuts to Medicaid and reducing the Child Tax Credit to $2,200 from $2,500. The Senate version also adjusts solar energy tax credits and sets a SALT cap of $10,000, lower than the House's $40,000.

Sen. Mike Crapo emphasized that the bill aims to prevent a $4 trillion tax hike and make the 2017 tax cuts permanent, providing relief for middle-class families amid inflation. Trump desires the bill finalized by the Fourth of July.

House GOP Signals Support for Higher SALT Cap Than Senate Proposal
Senate Republicans have proposed a permanent $10,000 cap on state and local tax (SALT) deductions, conflicting with the House's plan to raise the cap to $40,000 for certain households. House Republicans, particularly from high-tax states, insist on their version, warning that anything less will not be accepted.

The debate centers on tax relief for constituents in high-tax areas, with House members emphasizing the need for a compromise to maintain Republican support in these districts. They argue that the SALT cap is crucial for working families and aligns with conservative principles of fair taxation.
