“I was disappointed to see the bill for massive spending, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, not only decreases and undermines the work that the Doge team does,” Musk told CBS News in an interview that will be broadcast on Sunday.
The bill sentenced to the House would extend the expiration of tax reductions that Trump promulgated during his first mandate and increases expenses to the military and the application of borders. Some savings would come from changes offered in Medicaid and the food coupons program.
The Congressional Budget Office said that tax provisions would increase federal deficits by 3.8 billions of dollars during the decade.
