The United States Senate extended the debate on Sunday night on President Donald Trump's controversial budget, called the "big and beautiful bill," with the expectation of voting on the plan, which would cost more than $3 trillion to the public debt, as early as Monday.

Thus, the debate is in march on the Senate for an all-night session Sunday, with Republicans fighting President Donald Trump’s massive tax-cut and spending bill in the face of growing Democratic opposition and even some pressure over budget cuts from the president himself. GOP leaders are racing to meet Trump’s July 4 deadline to pass the package but barely mustered enough support to overcome a procedural hurdle Saturday night in a tense scene. So it’s still uncertain whether all 53 of Trump’s senators will support the bill, which would add $3.3 trillion to the public debt over 10 years, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) now estimates, up from the $2.4 trillion in the version that passed the House on May 22. Other lawmakers are questioning the cuts to social programs like Medicaid and food stamps because the CBO predicts 12 million people will lose their health insurance by 2034 under the initiative, which would cut $1.1 trillion from health care policies. Critics include Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina, who dropped his reelection bid Sunday after publicly opposing the bill and drawing criticism from Trump. “Facts matter, people matter. The Senate’s approach to Medicaid breaks promises and will push people who really need it off Medicaid,” the lawmaker said. Democrats, meanwhile, displayed unified opposition by first forcing through16 hours of reading aloud the 940 pages of the bill and then exhausting the 10 hours of debate that each party is entitled to in order to delay the process and expose the tax cuts for the wealthy and the budget.

"The Democrats are showing on the floor through parliamentary inquiries the hypocrisy of what the Republicans are trying to do here in the Senate. We are exposing how the Republicans are trying to hide the true cost of their gifts to billionaires," declared Democratic leader Chuck Schumer.

Trump intensified his lobbying in the last week for the Senate to approve his controversial 'Big, Beautiful Bill' these days to sign it on July 4, Independence Day.

The controversy grew this week after the 940-page draft now being discussed by the Senate was released, which includes more cuts than those approved by the House of Representatives, particularly to social programs and energy tax incentives. wind and solar power, and electric vehicles.
