The 215-214 House vote, with one abstention, was met with loud cheers by House Republicans. Some of the key provisions include:
Extension of Trump-era tax cuts and new relief, such as exempting tips and overtime from taxation.
The state and local tax (SALT) deduction cap will be increased to $40,000, with phase-outs for high earners.

It does not matter whether you label the centralizing ambitions of those elites as socialism, communism, technocracy, gobalism or fascism. It doesn’t matter whether you see them as reflecting philanthropic, criminal or satanic motives. The important thing about centralisation is that it absolutely requires censorship and comprehensive obliteration of rights and freedoms to persist, and that it is wholly incompatible with the flourishing of human beings...”
