Thom Tillis (R-NC) announced his opposition to the bill and Senate Republican leadership worked overnight to secure sufficient support to pass the legislation. <\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Several notable changes were made to the bill during the proceedings, including the removal of the moratorium on state regulation of artificial intelligence, the elimination of the proposed excise tax on solar and wind projects\u00a0and doubling the size of the rural hospital fund. The final vote was 50-50 with Vice President JD Vance breaking the tie; Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME), Thom Tillis (R-NC) and Rand Paul (R-KY) joined Democrats in opposing the bill.<\/p>\n<p>Senators took roll call votes on 40 amendments, motions to commit and motions to waive elements of the Congressional Budget Act. They also took six voice votes. In total, the Senate approved two amendments via voice vote, and one motion and three amendments via roll call vote. The latter included both the perfecting amendment and substitute amendment offered by Budget Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC). Two amendments were also withdrawn, for a total of 48 considered amendments. This was the longest vote-a-rama on record, and it also featured the highest number of amendments considered during a vote-a-rama.<\/p>\n<p>Click\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/comms.bhfs.com\/collect\/click.aspx?u=TldXUjlZdGJCRHRkNURTek94Wm1ITk9WaFc1akdQblM2TEpZbTVtd0NWNXBDWEp5SGdoQWJ0TENaTmlOMCtTTXRUVm8xSDdmUTZsOTRLNWQ2a3dGMUZvM3ovTFZwS1pGRHN6NUlsN1dGT2NkY29BM2F1WG02VmxTSWdKSHBVbWhGUXYvb2ZNV2FheVRMOFFjelpmNi9wN0ZQWENRMTRuYXI0K0twYXBCemZrPQ==&amp;rh=ff00edd47b45a194cc29861af04a9694aacc2327\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>, or below, for a complete tracker of the amendments.<\/p>\n<p>The House Rules Committee plans to meet at 1:30 p.m. on July 1 to prepare the Senate-passed bill for floor consideration. House members have been advised to expect floor votes to begin as early as 9 a.m. on July 2, but they may ultimately occur later this week. The Senate bill contains several significant differences from the House-passed version, but further modifying the Senate bill would delay final passage beyond President Trump\u2019s July 4 deadline. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and the president must unite the Republican caucus around the revised legislation to pass it before the holiday, but some Republican lawmakers, including the House Freedom Caucus have raised concerns or announced their opposition to the bill as written.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/familyenterpriseusa.com\/taxes\/contact-congress-ask-your-representative-to-vote-for-the-obbb-as-it-is-passed-by-the-senate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-hs-link-id=\"0\" data-hs-link-id-v2=\"OF7+anVS\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Take Action Now by Asking your Representative to Vote For the OBBB as it is Passed by the Senate.<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#397389&#8243; divider_style=&#8221;dotted&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;6px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck Logo &#038; About&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.1&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; link_option_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.bhfs.com\/&#8221; link_option_url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; border_style_all=&#8221;none&#8221; global_module=&#8221;6751&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7889 \" src=\"https:\/\/familyenterpriseusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/brownstein-logo-positive-RGB.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"567\" height=\"84\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>About Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck<br \/><\/strong>Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck is a unique law firm.
