“Donald Trump’s request to cancel some $9.4 billion in previously approved spending was approved by Senate Republicans on Tuesday, with JD Vance casting the deciding vote. The decision gave some relief to several lawmakers about what the rescissions could mean for impoverished people around the globe and for public radio and television stations in their home states. The Senate vote was 50-50, before Vice President JD Vance broke the tie. Following Tuesday’s vote, the matter is set to be produced to the Senate for a final vote. … The Bill will then come back to the House for another round of voting before it finds its way to Trump’s desk for his signature before a deadline on Friday.” (07/16/25)
