Almost all of the cuts that Republicans hope to pass in the coming weeks will last only until President Trump is set to leave office.

The vote came after an all-night debate that saw at least one lawmaker fall asleep at his post. Republicans rejected a series of proposed changes by opposition Democrats, who blasted the bill as a wasteful giveaway to the wealthy that would shred health and food benefits for the poor and worsen the nation's financial standing.

Republicans in Congress are moving with rapid speed to advance President Donald Trump’s big bill of tax breaks, spending cuts and beefed-up border security funding.
