CBO estimates ‘big, beautiful bill’ would add $3.3T to debt
The Senate's version of Trump's mega policy bill would add $3.3 trillion to the nation's debt over the next decade, according to the latest estimates released by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office on Sunday.
This latest estimate is roughly $1 trillion higher than the CBO’s score of the House's version of the bill, which it estimated would add roughly $2.4 trillion to the deficit over the next decade.

Additionally, the Senate's bill could also result in even more people losing their health care due to the cuts to Medicaid and additional cuts to the Affordable Care Act -- with roughly 11.8 million people potentially on the chopping block. The CBO estimated 10.8 million people could become uninsured over the next decade in its score of the House version of the bill.
The Senate's bill is expected to make deeper cuts to Medicaid due to new work requirements, but also due to steeper taxes that will be placed on some health care providers and hospitals to help cover the cost of Medicaid, known as the provider tax.
Republicans have argued in recent weeks that the CBO analysis is not accurate and they have been highly critical of the nonpartisan office.
