DAVID MUIR: Now, to Capitol Hill tonight. Senate Republicans trying to push through President Trump's massive tax cut benefiting wealthy Americans, and the president's cuts affecting health coverage for more than 11 million Americans. Food stamps and college aid affected, as well. Tonight, some critics in his own party defying the president, refusing to support it. One senator saying he won't run again. And Elon Musk again warning against this bill now, now threatening Republicans who vote for it. Mary Bruce at The White House tonight.

MARY BRUCE: Tonight, Senate Republicans scrambling to push through the massive tax cuts and spending bill at the heart of President Trump's agenda.

JOHN THUNE: Let's vote. This is good for America. This is good for the American people. It's good for working families.

BRUCE: The bill includes roughly $4 trillion in tax cuts for the wealthy, along with new funding for immigration enforcement. And fulfills some campaign pledges, like no taxes on tips and overtime. It also guts Biden-era clean energy initiatives and slashes Medicaid- something Trump promised he would not do.
