Senate Majority Leader John Thune is signaling that changes are likely to the House's version of President Trump's "big, beautiful bill." Senate Republicans will now get their chance to tweak and change the legislation, and have vowed to do so, despite warnings from Trump to reshape the bill as little as possible.
