A group of House Republican holdouts fell in line behind President Donald Trump overnight and agreed to advance his sweeping domestic agenda bill to a full House vote. The controversial legislation will lower federal taxes and infuse more money into the Pentagon and border security agencies. It will also downsize safety-net programs like Medicaid and SNAP, and add nearly $3.3 trillion to the deficit over a decade, according to an estimate from the Congressional Budget Office. A final vote is expected later this morning, though timing remains fluid. Twenty states are suing the Trump administration for allegedly violating federal privacy laws by turning over Medicaid data on millions of enrollees to deportation officials. Some of the private health files revealed names, addresses, Social Security numbers, immigration status and claims for enrollees. The information, which was sent to the Department of Homeland Security, included people who live in California, Illinois, Washington state and Washington, DC, which allow non-US citizens to enroll in Medicaid programs that pay for their expenses using only state taxpayer dollars. Experts said such information could be used to locate migrants for President Trump’s mass deportation campaign. A federal judge has blocked President Trump’s proclamation that barred migrants who crossed the US-Mexico border from seeking asylum. Immigrant rights advocates sued over the proclamation, claiming it endangered thousands of lives by preventing people from seeking refuge. US District Judge Randolph Moss ruled that the administration had overstepped its authority by bypassing immigration law. “The President cannot adopt an alternative immigration system, which supplants the statutes that Congress has enacted,” Judge Moss wrote. However, the judge stayed his decision for 14 days and the administration is expected to appeal. The Wisconsin Supreme Court struck down the state’s 176-year-old abortion ban on Wednesday. The justices ruled 4-3 that the 1849 ban was superseded by a newer state law that criminalized abortions only after a fetus could survive outside the womb. The older ban was in effect until 1973, when the US Supreme Court’s landmark Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion nationwide nullified it. However, since legislators never officially repealed the ban, conservatives argued that the high court’s 2022 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade reactivated it.
