Whether the American public comes to see the “Big Beautiful Bill” as “beautiful” remains to be seen. A June 26 Quinnipiac poll found 29% of voters support the bill, 55% opposed it, and 16% did not have an opinion. What’s clear is that Democrats will hold the bill against Trump during the 2026 midterm election campaign season.

Larry Summers said the bill likely would not make the economy stronger, and flagged concerned over the amount it would add to the US debt.

Low-income green card holders still within the mandatory five-year waiting period for Medicaid would be among those most affected.
