Trump's Tax Bill Passes House by One Vote, Sparking Outrage and Market Volatility Washington D.C. - In a dramatic turn of events, Donald Trump's ambitious tax bill narrowly passed the US House of Representatives on May 23rd, 2025. The bill, which promises significant tax cuts, was approved by a single vote, triggering immediate controversy and market reactions. Democrats have strongly condemned the bill, arguing that its proposed cuts to social programs and healthcare will disproportionately harm everyday Americans. "This bill is a disaster for working families," stated Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in a press conference following the vote. The bill's passage has also sent shockwaves through the stock market, with shares in renewable energy companies experiencing significant declines. However, Trump's administration has celebrated the bill's passage as a triumph. "This is a turning point in American history," Trump declared in a televised address, emphasizing the bill's potential to boost the economy. The White House has defended the bill's provisions, arguing that the long-term economic benefits outweigh the short-term costs. The narrow margin of victory highlights the deep political divisions surrounding the bill. Two Republican representatives voted against the measure, expressing concerns about the potential increase in the national debt. The coming weeks will likely see intense debate and discussion as the bill moves through the legislative process.
