Senate Trump Agenda Bill Costs Over $500B
The Senate is advancing President Trump’s agenda bill, aiming to cut taxes and reduce spending.
A recent report estimates the bill could cost over $508 billion in the next ten years.
However, this figure does not include the cost of extending the 2017 Trump tax cuts.
Extending those cuts could add trillions more to the national debt.
The plan also includes significant Medicaid cuts that could impact millions.
By 2034, nearly 12 million people might lose health insurance coverage.
Medicaid currently supports over 71 million low-income Americans across the country.
Critics warn that these spending cuts would hurt vulnerable populations.
Supporters argue the bill will boost economic growth and reduce government waste.
The debate highlights ongoing divisions over fiscal policy and healthcare.
Lawmakers are expected to continue negotiations as the bill moves forward.
The final version could have major consequences for the federal budget and millions of Americans.
