President Donald Trump's important bill in Congress includes tax cuts and spending reductions, but it also plans to give billions of dollars to the government's large-scale deportation plans.

On Tuesday, Republican leaders took advantage of the protests in Los Angeles, where people are demonstrating against Trump's immigration raids at places like Home Depot. They used these protests to argue for the quick approval of their very long bill, which is over 1,000 pages, despite strong opposition from Democrats.

House Speaker Mike Johnson stated that the One Big Beautiful Bill Act offers "crucial assistance." This encompasses 10,000 additional Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, $45 billion for expanding migrant detention centers, and several billion more to conduct at least 1 million deportations annually.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., stated that the events in Los Angeles highlight the crucial need to provide law enforcement with all possible support.

The focus on about $350 billion for national security is happening while the large legislative package is moving slowly through Congress at an important time. Trump wants the bill passed by the Fourth of July. However, Senate Republicans are trying to pass it without Democrats, but they are also facing disagreements from within their own party about the details.

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated that the proposed bill's changes to Medicaid and other social programs would lead to about 10.9 million more people without health insurance. Additionally, it predicted that at least 3 million people each month would stop getting food assistance from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). At the same time, the CBO stated that this bill would increase the national debt by an estimated $2.4 trillion over the next ten years.

A growing concern for Republican leaders is the bill's status with the Senate parliamentarian's office. This office decides if the package follows the strict rules for legislation under the budget reconciliation process.

On Monday evening, Republicans admitted there might be some issues with the House bill, as pointed out by the parliamentarian's office. This means they will need to make changes to the bill before it can go to the Senate. The leaders are using a special process called reconciliation, which allows them to pass the bill with a simple majority vote in both the House and the Senate, where the Republican majority is very small.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise stated that Republicans are ready to deal with the issues by having a vote in the House, possibly this week, to modify the bill.

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer viewed the House's upcoming second vote as a chance for Republicans who are not satisfied with the current plan to show their power and make the bill be completely changed.

Schumer stated that those who have concerns about certain parts of the bill now have a crucial chance to make significant changes.

On Tuesday, Vice President JD Vance was sent to talk with Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, a Republican who has been holding out and pushing for bigger spending cuts in the bill. He wants to stop rising deficits from making the nation's $36 trillion debt even worse. Other Republican senators have also expressed worries about the planned cuts to healthcare.

However, Republicans are in agreement regarding border security, deportation, and military funding, even though Democrats strongly opposed these points and tried to remove them from the bill during the committee discussions.

The plan includes around $150 billion for border security and deportation efforts. This money will cover hiring 10,000 new ICE officers, who Johnson mentioned would receive $10,000 hiring bonuses, as well as 3,000 new Border Patrol agents and other staff for operations and support.

Additionally, the funding provides for the daily detention of 100,000 migrants and for flights to deport one million people each year. The package also includes $46 billion for building the border wall that has been frequently promised.

The bill also provides $150 billion for the Pentagon, with $5 billion specifically for military operations that support border security. It also includes nearly $25 billion for Trump's "Golden Dome" defense system. Separately, an additional $21 billion is allocated for the Coast Guard.

Democrats have opposed the deportations, warning that Trump seems to be intentionally causing trouble to justify stricter control over immigrant communities.

Representative Nanette Barragán, whose district includes the suburban city of Paramount, where protests started after the Home Depot incident, asked Americans to pay attention to the administration's language. She pointed out that they are using words like "insurrection" and "invasion."

She warned that the administration was creating a situation that could lead to even more severe actions.

“That’s a worrying development,” she stated, “one that is dangerous and, frankly, morally wrong.”
