Trump's flagship tax bill passes US Congress | AFP

Description:

The Republican‑led US Congress narrowly passed Donald Trump’s flagship spending bill after a marathon voting session on the package, which is set to slash social welfare programs and add more than $3 trillion to the national debt. The text, headlined by a $4.5 trillion renewal of the president’s first‑term tax cuts, was approved by the House of Representatives along party lines, delivering Trump the biggest legislative win of his second term.
