The U.S. House of Representatives voted to pass President Donald Trump’s domestic policy package on Thursday after Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), who represents part of Brooklyn, spoke for over eight hours in opposition.
The $4.5 trillion bill would cut taxes and social services, including Medicare and Medicaid programs, while increasing funding for border security and immigration enforcement. It now heads to the White House, where it is all but certain Trump will sign it into law.
