Trump Lobbies House Republicans for Tax Bill Support

President TRUMP made a strategic visit to Capitol Hill, addressing the House GOP Conference to rally support for his proposed tax legislation. The bill, which he described as "big, beautiful," aims to extend prior tax cuts while increasing defense and border security funding.

Despite visible divisions within the Republican party, Trump asserted unprecedented unity among House and Senate members. "This is really just a pep talk," he told reporters, framing the meeting as a motivational exercise rather than a crisis intervention.

The legislation represents a consolidation of Trump’s Core policy agenda, combining tax reductions with spending cuts to social programs like Medicaid and food stamps. The President hinted at political consequences for Republicans who oppose the measure, suggesting midterm elections could become challenging for dissenters.
