The Republicans of the Senate left Washington this week to sell the “big and beautiful draft law” to President Donald Trump, but the way to establish legislation and pass them began a little more than a year and a half ago.
Trump was 3.3 trillion dollars, jammed with his legislative priorities in border security, defense and energy, the most famous productive. The demobic policy was in the bill, which was extending or making many tax cuts and permanent jobs for 2017, which was the driving force behind the Republicans’ desire to pass.
But the Republicans of the Senate had little time to resent their glories and celebrate the passage of the bill, as they spent the month since Trump signed a Clawback package of $ 9 billion and an attempt to slaughter through the Senate Siege of the Senate of the President.

The journey began to pass the bill before Republicans had Trevikta in Washington in early 2024, when the president of the Republican Conference at the time, John Paraso, R and Wuw, hosted a decline in politics with the Republic of the Senate to ignore what the Republican Party’s agenda would seem to be in the event of victory in November.
After months, Trump visited the Republican Senate to discuss the strategy they were working on behind the scenes.
“With President Trump at the White House, we discussed how the Republicans will return America to the right track,” Pararaso said at the time. “This begins with the help of families to escape the high pain of Democrats, unleash American energy, stop the tax increases of Democrats, and secure the southern borders. Republicans are united.”
The accurate real work began in January, when the concepts were transferred and come to legislation.
The majority leader of the Senate John ThunRS.D chose the House of Representatives leap and moved forward in the budget of the Senate, which initially divided the “Beautiful Big Law” into two pieces. This added pressure on Republicans in the lower room to gather behind their own plan.
However, for the previous part of this year, the Senate was waiting for the House of Representatives to seize it and pass its own version of the draft law. However, Thne and Driving Team, including Markwayne Mullin, R-OKLA, has a unilateral to one to the other that the Republican Party in the Senate.

When the draft law made its way to the upper room in early June, the pressure on delivering a final product to Trump was made by July 4, an artificial deadline used to help the joint lawyers to finish working on the bill.
It was one of the main differences in the upper room before the draft law ever reached the nature of the discounts in Medicaid, especially in the provider’s tax rate. The case was eventually softened by the establishment of a country hospital fund worth $ 50 billion, but the lawmakers who expressed an ultimatum against him pledged to ensure that the changes in the provider will never come into effect.
“I think it was a big mistake,” said Senator Josh Holie, R-MO. “I think this was an unhappy episode here in Congress, and this effort to lower Medicaid.”
“I think, frankly, that my party needs to do some self -search,” continued. “If you want to be a working class party, you must deliver it to the working class personnel. You cannot remove health care from workers.”
When the draft law finally reached the ground because of what will develop into a multi -day relationship with the passing of procedural obstacles, the leader of the Senate Chuck Schumer, DN.Y.
Initially, it seemed that a group of financial falcons led by Senator Ron Johnson, R.
He offered them an amendment that did not eventually come to Earth, but they were sufficient to retract the bill. Their resistance began in the first handful of the gathering inside the Thun office outside the Senate Hall.

Senator Senatea Lomes, R and U, joined them in closed conversations, and told Fox News Digital that although its vote was not dependent on the addition to the change, it wanted to raise the case.
“He has saved a lot of money,” she said. “I saved a lot of money, so I was keen to see us reach the opportunity, because we were able to open mandatory spending, and took advantage of the opportunity to really save some money.”
After that, in the early hours of the night, the Republicans were wearing from Thne’s office to the Senate floor, and the deals were beautiful while they were going to get the Senator Lisa Moxovsky, R-Alska, to support the draft law, knowing that Sens.
“Sometimes it should be placed around the clock, because at some point the argument should end,” Moulin told Fox News Digital. “That is why we had to do each other on the ground. We had that, we had to force the hand.”

In the end, only three Republicans voted, Sens. Rand Paul of Kentucky, Collins and Tillis against the draft law. From there he went to the House of Representatives, where Republicans in the lower room had a dramatic gathering to pass the legislative giant.
Now, as Republicans spread to their countries of origin to sell the bill to their voters, Teles said that the “basic” information that the legislators can share is that they have avoided increasing taxes at the country level.
“The shame of the Medicaid item is that the vast majority of the draft law is supported,” he told Fox News Digital. “I think we must remind them of the problem in the tax bill is that they will not see a discount, but if we did not, they would have seen a historical increase.”
“So we need to remind them of what we are doing is to continue what we started, and the economy we created, was able to bear Covid.” “And I believe a firm belief if we did not pass it. We were in a different position.”
