Senate GOP's Tax Megabill Faces Bipartisan Opposition
Proposed legislation encounters resistance over Medicaid and clean-energy provisions
The Senate Republican tax and spending megabill is facing challenges from both sides of the aisle, with disagreements over Medicaid cuts and modifications to clean-energy incentives.
Internal GOP divisions, particularly concerning the state and local tax (SALT) deduction cap, further complicate the bill's prospects.
The Congressional Budget Office estimates that the legislation would increase the federal deficit by $2.4 trillion over the next decade.
