House advances Trump's "big, beautiful bill" for debate before final vote, CBS News, 424 AM EDT 7/3/25

The House voted 219-213 overnight Wednesday, after hours of delay, to advance President Trump's "big, beautiful bill" for debate before a final vote. GOP leaders had to overcome pushback over changes the Senate made to the legislation.

The latest vote began at about 9:30 p.m. Wednesday and wrapped up at about 3:20 a.m. as GOP holdouts were pressured to vote "yes."

Debate was expected to last roughly an hour, after which House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Speaker Mike Johnson were expected to address the chamber.


The holdouts and all that was all Kabuki Theater.
