The One Big Beautiful Bill Act, named with a nod to President Donald Trump , is teetering at a critical moment.

Conservatives are holding out for steeper cuts to Medicaid and other programs to help offset the costs of the tax breaks.

But lawmakers from high-tax states including New York are demanding a deeper tax deduction, known as SALT , for their constituents.

Package includes $350 billion for deportation, $4 trillion increase in debt ceiling.

It also includes a bolstered standard deduction of $ 32,000 for joint filers and a temporary $ 500 boost to the child tax credit.

The package also seeks to cover the costs by slashing more than $1 trillion from health care and food assistance programs.
