Ryan Schmelz: 作为主持人，我观察到特朗普总统希望在7月4日前签署一项大型法案，但参议院和众议院之间存在分歧，如果对法案改动过多，可能难以在众议院通过。两院最终需要达成一致，才能使法案顺利通过。 Chad Pergram: 作为国会记者，我分析了参议院和众议院在“一项大型美好法案”上的分歧。并非所有参议院共和党人都对这项法案感到满意。参议院必须稍微修改法案，以符合参议院的预算规则，但如果改动过多，可能难以在众议院通过。众议院和参议院最终需要达成一致。降低SALT扣除额对纽约、新泽西和加州的共和党人来说是一种侮辱。许多共和党人根本不想要SALT，但他们意识到为了推动整个法案，必须允许一些SALT条款。如果他们真的大幅削减SALT扣除额，甚至降到零，那么SALT扣除额将恢复到2017年的水平，这对那些一直呼吁提高SALT扣除额的议员来说实际上更有利。参议院正在使用预算协调的特殊程序，可以绕过阻挠议事，只需要简单多数。因为他们使用预算协调，所以必须保持预算中性，不能增加赤字。 Darrell Issa: 作为共和党议员，我认为降低SALT扣除额对纽约和加州的共和党人来说是一种侮辱。 Caroline Leavitt: 作为白宫新闻秘书，我认为“一项大型美好法案”对中产阶级美国人来说是一项巨大的胜利，特朗普总统要求国会共和党人在独立日（7月4日）前将这项历史性法案送到他的办公桌上签字。

Shownotes Transcript

As the Senate prepares to vote on the revised version of President Trump’s "Big Beautiful Bill," tension has once again risen over its contents, particularly over language pertaining to the SALT deduction cap. While the House bill raised the cap to $40,000, the Senate’s version lowers it back to $10,000. With the issue of SALT being a sticking point for key blue-state Republicans, the Senate’s tweak may put the bill’s final passage in jeopardy. **Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram **joins to discuss the debate over SALT, as well as how members of Congress are reacting to last weekend’s assassination of Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman.

Then, Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) explains why raising the SALT cap is so vital to his constituency. Plus, he weighs in on the Israel-Iran conflict and Tuesday's New York City mayoral primary.
