May 18 (UPI) -- The House Budget Committee advanced President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" in a rare Sunday night vote.
They met at 10 p.m. to consider the bill that extends Trump's tax cuts, increases border funding priorities and requires Medicaid recipients to work.
The measure passed 17-16 along party lines, with four Republicans who rejected the bill the first time on Friday voting present Sunday: Ralph Norman of Oklagoa, Chip Roy of Texas, Andrew Clyde of Georgia and Josh Brecheen of Oklahoma. They voted against the bill Friday, preventing it from advancing then.
Roy said he voted present "out of respect for the Republican Conference and the president," but doesn't support the bill as it stands.
