Trump admin updates: Trump calls for expanded deportations in LA, NYC and more

Speaker Mike Johnson celebrated the passage of the $9.4 billion package to codify DOGE cuts to foreign aid and public broadcasting in the House.

“This is a long time overdue. We just had an important vote here on the floor. Today's passage of this initial rescissions package marks a critical step towards a more responsible and transparent government that puts the interest of the American taxpayers first.

We want to thank DOGE for their heroic and patriotic efforts that work led to this,” Johnson told reporters in the Capitol after the vote.

Johnson said the package is “just one of the ways” Republicans are codifying DOGE cuts. “There’ll be more of this in the days ahead,” he added.

“This is a good day for the House chamber. This the first rescissions package now passed through the House. I expect it will pass through this Senate,” he concluded.

A new analysis from the bipartisan Congressional Budget Office released Thursday shows the House-passed Trump megabill would reduce “resources” of the poorest U.S. households by about $1,600 per year while households in the top 10% would see gains of about $12,000 per year.

Overall, the megabill would benefit high-earners most but reduce financial resources to lowest-income households.

In addition, the lowest-earning 10% would see a 3.9% income cut while the highest-earning 10% would get a 2.3% income boost.

House Speaker Mike Johnson called the recessions package vote a "critical step toward a more responsible and transparent government that puts the interests of the American taxpayers first" and thanked DOGE for its work to identify spending cuts.

"Under President Trump's leadership, your taxpayer dollars are no longer being wasted. Instead, they are being directed toward priorities that truly benefit the American people," Johnson said.

The measure did face opposition, though, among a handful of Republicans.

The four House Republicans who voted against the package to codify DOGE cuts were Reps. Mark Amodei of Nevada, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Nicole Malliotakis of New York and Mike Turner of Ohio.

The House narrowly passed a $9.4 billion package to codify the first batch of DOGE cuts to foreign aid and public broadcasting. The final tally was 214-212.

The vote was held open for longer than five minutes. Several moderate Republicans had no votes at first. After a huddle and long conversation on the floor with Speaker Mike Johnson, Whip Tom Emmer, Reps. Nick LaLota, Mike Lawler and Dusty Johnson, LaLota flipped his vote and Lawler voted in favor, allowing the House to barely clear the measure.

Several Republicans did buck President Trump and GOP leaders and voted against the bill.

The bill now heads to the Senate where it faces an uphill battle. Senate Majority Leader John Thune told reporters the package will not be taken up until after budget reconciliation -- likely in July.
