With a crucial deadline looming just over two weeks away, the political pressure is mounting around the highly debated ‘One Big Beautiful Bill Act’. White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles recently engaged in critical talks with Senate Republicans to bridge the significant gaps emerging between the House and Senate versions of this landmark legislation.

This important meeting, held on June 18th, followed closely on the heels of the Senate Finance Committee’s release of their draft bill—a document that presents stark contrasts to the version already passed by the House nearly a month prior. The differences are substantial, touching upon key elements such as Medicaid provisions and the contentious issue of state and local tax (SALT) deductions.

One notable divergence revolves around the phasing out of Biden-era green energy subsidies. The Senate’s proposal suggests a slower phase-out compared to its House counterpart, a detail certain to ignite further discussion and negotiation in the coming days. The coming weeks will be crucial to see if these parties can reach a consensus before the deadline.
