According to the Congressional Budget Office, how much would the bill's spending cuts save over ten years?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Congressional Budget Office estimates the Big Beautiful Bill's spending cuts would save $1.3 trillion over ten years, primarily through Medicaid work requirements and cuts to food assistance programs. However, this savings is dwarfed by the $3.7 trillion in tax cuts, creating a net $2.4 trillion deficit increase. The relatively small spending cuts compared to massive tax reductions reveal the bill's true priorities: permanent benefits for wealthy individuals and corporations while modest cuts to programs helping working families.
