After a furious few weeks of debate, closed door negotiations, open floor debate and deal-making, the Republican-controlled legislature has finally passed a final version of President Donald Trump’s budget priorities referred to by Republicans as “One Big Beautiful Bill.” It is likely going to be the most significant legislative accomplishment of Trump’s second term. And as with most bills, this one has its winners and its losers. But make no mistake, it will impact every American one way or another. USA TODAY Senior Congress and Campaigns Reporter Riley Beggin joins The Excerpt to explain what's in the final bill.
