President Donald Trump called on Congress to make his expiring 2017 tax cuts permanent just hours after House Republicans squeaked through a tax-and-spending plan paving the way for a temporary extension through deep cuts in safety-net programs such as Medicaid.

The Republican bill for the congressional budget narrowly passes the House of Representatives, advancing to the Senate floor.

House Republicans narrowly passed a budget that includes $4.5 trillion in tax breaks and $2 trillion in spending cuts, with $880 billion expected to come from Medicaid. Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries criticized the plan, calling it a reckless attack on vulnerable Americans.
