Matt Gagnon discussed the progress of the “big, beautiful bill” through the Senate, aiming for a July 4 deadline. The Senate bill would add $3.3 trillion to the national debt from 2025 to 2034, compared to $2.4 trillion for the House bill, and could result in 11.8 million more uninsured Americans by 2034.
