The budget bill is central to Donald Trump’s agenda and includes many of the promises the president has made on the campaign trail, particularly on tax cuts.

The Senate narrowly passed President Trump's massive tax and spending bill Tuesday after a marathon series of amendment votes.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune says Republicans “got the job done” in passing President Donald Trump’s big bill of tax breaks and spending cuts.
