There are major changes coming for Americans’ finances, after the House of Representatives passed a landmark tax and spending bill at the center of President Donald Trump’s domestic agenda.
House Republicans passed the legislation Thursday in a 218-214 vote along party lines. The Senate passed it in a 51-50 vote two days earlier. Trump’s signature, which came Friday, was the last thing needed to usher in the changes that many people will start seeing early next year.
