Congress has approved President Trump's proposal to slash $9 billion in federal spending, impacting public broadcasters like PBS and NPR, along with foreign aid programs. The House passed the bill with a narrow 216-213 margin, while the Senate approved it 51-48, with some Republicans dissenting over concerns about congressional power. Trump hailed the cuts as a victory, while Republican leaders framed it as a step toward fiscal responsibility.
