The U.S. Senate has passed the Trump "Beautiful Act" by a vote of 51 to 50.

BlockBeats News, July 2nd, the U.S. Senate passed the Trump "Beautiful Act" by a vote of 51 to 50. Three out of the 53 Republican senators joined Democrats in opposition, with Vice President Pence casting the deciding vote. The bill has now been sent to the House of Representatives, where it is expected to be voted on this week, although success is not guaranteed. With united opposition from Democrats, only a few Republican House members need to vote against the bill for it to be defeated. Republicans have stated that passing the bill will help them maintain the majority in Congress in the midterm elections. However, polls show that the bill is not particularly popular. A survey found that 49% of Americans oppose the bill, 29% support it, and about 21% are undecided. Republicans argue that the legislation will boost the economy, curb illegal immigration, and begin to cut waste in healthcare and other welfare programs. However, many economists warn that the bill will have minimal impact on the economy and will only worsen the fiscal situation. (Golden Finance)
