In Washington, Congressional Republicans, including all from Texas, passed what President Trump has called the "big, beautiful bill." It makes permanent the tax cuts approved during the President's first term.

House Republicans have taken a major step forward on President Donald Trump’s agenda. The House early Thursday passed a legislative package that combines tax breaks, spending cuts, border security funding and other priorities.

With President Trump's "One Big, Beautiful Bill" passing the House on Wednesday, the Senate will tackle the budget legislation next, with the Republicans hoping to clear the next hurdle by July 4, according to media reports.
