SALT Tax Debate Delays GOP Spending Bill | JQJO

House Republicans passed a major tax and spending bill early Thursday, incorporating President Trump's priorities. The bill's passage was delayed by contentious negotiations over the SALT (state and local tax) deduction cap. Lawmakers from high-tax states successfully pressured for an increase to the cap, highlighting the fragility of the Republican majority and internal divisions within the party. The bill now moves to the Senate, where its fate remains uncertain.
