The event marks the culmination of weeks of effort by the president and his team to get the bill across the finish line.

Trump's first term; steep cuts to Medicaid spending, the state-provided healthcare scheme for those on low incomes and the disabled; new tax breaks on t

President Donald Trump is scheduled to sign a massive package of tax and spending cuts into law at a ceremony at the White House on Friday, one day after the Republican-controlled House of Representatives narrowly approved the legislation.

It also takes aim at Medicaid, the federal and state health program that covered 78.6 million low-income children and adults as of March 2025, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

Sharp Medicaid cuts could result in vulnerable Americans no longer being able to receive care, either by losing coverage or by closing the centers that provide such care.

Donald Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' is poised to pass the House and later reach the president's desk for him to sign.
