The Republican budget-reconciliation omnibus, H.R. 1, the OBBB Act, passed 215-214-1 at 6:55 am Thursday morning. After a marathon Rules Committee markup concluded late Wednesday night, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) moved the legislation directly to the floor.
Two Republicans voted against the bill, one Republican voted present, and two did not vote. All 212 Democrats voted against the legislation.
The bill, which extends and expands Trump’s tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, repeals most of the Inflation Reduction Act, gives the Office of Management and Budget $100 million to kill regulations, and fast-tracks oil, gas, coal, logging, and mining projects across the nation, was broadly backed by American corporations.
