Good morning and welcome to our live coverage of American policy and the second Trump administration.
The US Senate maintains the marathon vote on a vibrant budget for Donald Trump’s business schedule and will witness comprehensive tax exemptions and discounts on health care and food programs if passed.
Senate members met in the Capitol for a process known as “Pott-A-Rama”, where legislators propose amendments to the legislation as expected to be several hours.
Democrats say the tax cuts of the draft law will benefit the wealthy at the expense of the social programs of low -income Americans.
The beautiful big bill law (Yes, this is expected to be officially called) the addition of an estimated 3.3 trillion to the national debt during the next decade. Republicans rush to pass the deadline imposed by Bill Trump on July 4.
Republicans – who control both Congress rooms and generally loyal to Trump – are heavily divided over the expiration of discounts in social welfare in order to expand tax exemptions in legislation.
It is about 2.30 am in Washington, and it has passed more than 16 hours since the voting began. We expect a result of about two and a half hours/ three hours. Stay with us for all the latest developments.

Main events
Democrats undertake to bring “amendment after the Earth’s amendment”
The leader of the minority in the Senate Chuck Shomer “Amendment after the amendment after the floor is modified, so that the Republicans can defend billionaire tax cuts,” Democrats said.
He said that the Democrats will make amendments to “seeing once and for all if the Republicans really concern all those gentle things they say about” enhancing medical aid “and” protecting the families of the middle class “, or if they are lying.”
While the marathon session is heading in the early hours of the morning, some legislators find ways to relax or vent the room temperature.
Senate members have also taken a rest from the Senate Hall.
The American Republican Senator Tommy Tobreville, from Alabama, smoked a cigar on the balcony of the Capitol at sunset while other members of the Republican Party of the Republican Party and spoke in rooms near the Senate Chamber.
The Senate Dramatic session at this weekend witnessed a narrow death from 51-49 to proceduce a procedural vote on Saturday night to strengthen the draft budget and forced reading of a 940-page draft law by Democrats, a political maneuver that was published in its progress.
Two Republicans stood up to Democrats in voting against the opening debate, and they want to change parts of controversial legislation.
One of these Republicans was moderate North Carolina Garm TeleisWho said that the package was a betrayal of Donald Trump’s promise not to withdraw health care from people, which is afraid that it will happen if rural hospitals are closed. The other was Rand Paul from Kentucky.
The draft law now must survey an official vote in the Senate and return it to the House of Representatives for approval-which Trump wants to do before the deadline for the July 4.
As my colleague Chris Stein explained in this story, after Teleis refused to vote for the bill, Trump attacked him and Senator announced that he would not defend his re -election next year, which could improve the chances of Democrats in obtaining a purple state seat.
