Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is holding the House floor in a speech that has already run for more than an hour, delaying what GOP leaders hoped would be a quick march to the final vote on President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

By Wednesday evening, enough Republicans remained opposed to the Senate’s version of the bill to effectively stall its passage in the House.

House Republicans muscled the “big, beautiful bill” through a procedural hurdle on the floor overnight Thursday, setting the legislation up for a final vote as the conference works to get it to President Donald Trump’s desk by July 4.
