Washington — The House convened Wednesday to take up President Trump's Senate-passed massive domestic policy bill, to approve changes to the legislation ahead of a July 4 deadline to get the bill to the president's desk for his signature.

Donald Trump wants the huge tax and spend bill passed by Friday - when the US celebrates Independence Day - but it has been held up in Congress.

Now, the legislation goes back to the lower chamber, where House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and other GOP leaders are corralling votes. The House narrowly passed the bill last month in a 215-214 vote, and now that several modifications have been made to the text, more than two dozen House members are currently holdouts.
