74% Informative

At 887 pages, the legislation is a sprawling collection of tax breaks, spending cuts and other Republican priorities.

The bill would provide some $350 billion for Trump ’s border and national security agenda, including $46 billion for the U.S.-Mexico border wall and $45 billion for 100,000 migrant detention facility beds.

The wealthiest households would see a $ 12,000 increase from the legislation, which would cost the poorest people $ 1,600 a year.

The Senate bill temporarily delays the start date of that cost-sharing for states with the highest SNAP error rates.

A tax break for people who buy new or used electric vehicles would expire on Sept. 30 of this year , instead of at the end of 2032 under current law.

A provision was thrown in at the final hours that will provide $10 billion annually to rural hospitals for five years .
