A List of Nearly Everything in the Senate G.O.P. Bill, and How Much It Would Cost or Save
We’re updating this page with reported last-minute changes to the bill before it was passed by the Senate. The final text has not yet been released.
10-year costs $1t $2t $3t $4t $5t Tax cut extensions Other tax provisions Temporary tax cuts Defense Homeland security/ immigration Other
10-year savings $1t Medicaid Green energy/ environment Student loans Food benefits Other health care Natural resources Source: New York Times analysis of Congressional Budget Office estimates. Note: Amounts are net totals by category and do not include all effects of interactions between provisions.
The tax and domestic policy bill passed by Senate Republicans on Tuesday includes hundreds of provisions, including extended and expanded tax cuts and significant cuts to Medicaid, food benefits and other programs. It would add more than $3 trillion to the national debt. To become law, it still needs to gain a second passage through the House and be signed by the president.
Below is a table that lists how nearly every provision would affect the federal budget over 10 years, as estimated by the Congressional Budget Office in an analysis published Sunday. The budget office measured the legislation as it usually does, taking into account the cost of extending expiring tax cuts. This is a different approach than the one embraced by the Senate’s leaders. The C.B.O. analysis does not include a handful of policy provisions that do not have direct effects on the federal deficit.
Republicans made several last-minute changes to the bill. We’ve highlighted some items that were amended, added or removed since the C.B.O.’s evaluation.
