GOP leaders find new major holiday deadline for Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' amid Medicaid, tax divisions

Some Republican leaders are hoping they can pass a massive bill codifying President Donald Trump's agenda into federal law by the Fourth of July.

It means the sweeping policy overhaul could reach Trump’s desk for a signature by the 250th anniversary of the United States’ founding.

"I’ve said all along, my goal is, is for the president to sign this one big, beautiful bill on July 4th," House Ways & Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith, R-Mo., told "Fox News Sunday."

It comes as House Republicans struggle to reconcile differences on clean energy and Medicaid in talks to find at least $1.5 trillion in spending cuts to pay for Trump’s tax policies.
