The Senate must amend the House-passed President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) to root out waste, fraud, and abuse while protecting healthcare benefits for Americans, Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IO) explained on The Alex Marlow Show.
President Donald Trump’s reconciliation bill is “an opportunity to be very aggressive about getting rid of the waste in the federal government,” Ernst told host Alex Marlow, giving “assurances” that rural Trump voters who are eligible for Medicaid will have their healthcare protected.
The House successfully passed Trump’s OBBB early Thursday morning after a marathon series of negotiations leading up to the vote. The chamber passed the legislation days ahead of its self-imposed Memorial Day deadline.
The Senate has its own deadline of the Fourth of July
