Washington. The president of the United States, Donald Trump, promulgated on Friday his emblematic budget law, crowning a ceremony of the Independence Day in the White House full of pomp and marked by an air parade of b-2 bombers, the planes used to attack Iran.
The bill will finance the repression of immigration, will make its 2017 tax cuts permanent and could leave millions of Americans without medical insurance. I have never seen people so happy in our country thanks to this, because many different groups of people are being treated: military, civilians of all kinds
Trump said at the ceremony.
The approval of the bill is a great victory for Trump and its Republican allies, which have argued that it will boost economic growth. However, his government has passed deep concerns in their own ranks and their voters about the increase in national debt and the dismantling of the health and social security system. The budget office of the Congress, a non -partisan body, has warned that the law will add 3.4 billion dollars to the national debt of 36.2 billion dollars.
It’s a good time
Trump said while signing the document with a thick marker, surrounded by dozens of Republican legislators who aligned to support their call Big and beautiful law
. We enter the Golden Era of the United States
exclaimed.
This law consolidates the radical agenda of the second government of the Republican president, includes a new mass financing for the Trump migrants deportation campaign and underlines the mastery of the 79 -year -old magnate over the Republican party and US politics in general.
The initiative was approved on Thursday by 218 to 214 votes in the House of Representatives, after the president of the Lower House, Republican Mike Johnson, worked all night before to ensure the support of several dissidents.
The package meets many of Trump’s campaign promises: increase military spending, finance a mass deportation campaign of migrants and allocate 4.5 billion dollars to extend the tax cuts of your first mandate (2017-2021).
At the same time, it will reduce the Federal Food Assistance Program to the vulnerable population and force the greatest cuts to the Medicaid health insurance system for low -income Americans from the launch of the program in the 1960s.
By virtue of the law, up to 17 million people could lose their health coverage, according to some estimates, which also foresee the closure of dozens of rural hospitals.
Democrats expect the public opposition to the law to help them again control the lower house in the intermediate elections of 2026, with the argument that the president’s initiative represents a huge redistribution of wealth of the poorest Americans towards the richest.
