Los republicanos del Senado de Estados Unidos sacaron adelante el 29 de junio, en una maratoniana sesión de fin de semana, el amplio proyecto de ley de recorte de impuestos y gasto del presidente Donald Trump, incluso cuando un pronosticador no partidista dijo que añadiría una deuda estimada de 3,3 billones de dólares a la nación en una década.

Washington

The US Senate has advanced President Donald Trump's major tax cut and spending bill following a narrow procedural vote. The legislation, which includes $4 trillion in tax cuts primarily benefiting the wealthy and $1.2 trillion in cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, has faced strong opposition from Democrats and some Republicans. Critics argue that the bill would deprive millions of Americans of health coverage and eliminate green energy tax credits. 

A nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office analysis estimates the bill would add $3.3 trillion to the US deficit over a decade. While most Republicans are supporting the bill, some, including Trump ally Elon Musk, have voiced concerns about its economic impact. Trump has threatened political consequences for Republican senators who oppose the bill, with at least one senator announcing he will not seek re-election after voting against it.

El Senado de EE UU saca adelante la rebaja fiscal de Trump

La emblemática Ley Big Beautiful de Donald Trump pasó por los pelos una votación de procedimiento el sábado por la noche, pero el rencor persiste. El proyecto de ley ha sido condenado por senadores como Bernie Sanders como un regalo a la clase multimillonaria. Se espera que suponga 4 billones de dólares en recortes fiscales, principalmente para los ricos, y también hará recortes de 1,2 billones de dólares en Medicaid y cupones de alimentos, lo que privaría de cobertura sanitaria a 11,8 millones de estadounidenses. Los demócratas también han denunciado la eliminación de los créditos fiscales a la energía verde. Dicen que los republicanos están jugando un juego peligroso. Los republicanos están a punto de aprobar el proyecto de ley más caro en la historia de EE.UU. para dar exenciones fiscales a los multimillonarios, mientras que la eliminación de Medicaid, SNAP beneficios y empleos bien remunerados para millones de personas. Los republicanos pueden utilizar cualquier truco presupuestario que quieran para intentar que las matemáticas funcionen sobre el papel, pero no pueden ocultar las consecuencias reales de añadir decenas de billones a la deuda. La Oficina Presupuestaria del Congreso, que no es partidista, estima que el proyecto de ley del Senado aumentaría el déficit en casi 3,3 billones de dólares de 2025 a 2034. Pero no sólo los demócratas tienen recelos. Elon Musk, aliado de Trump, ha calificado el proyecto de ley de loco y destructivo, diciendo que destruiría millones de puestos de trabajo. Algunos senadores republicanos también se oponen a aumentar el déficit federal, aunque muchos se están alineando. Trump ha amenazado con primar a los senadores republicanos que se nieguen a apoyar el proyecto de ley. Uno de ellos, Tom Tillis, de Carolina del Norte, dijo que no se presentaría a la reelección tras votar en contra del proyecto de ley por sus recortes a Medicaid.
