WASHINGTON, July 3 (Reuters) - Republicans in the House of Representatives advanced U.S. President Donald Trump 's massive tax-cut and spending bill toward a final yes-or-no vote early Thursday morning, appearing to overcome internal party divisions over its cost.

House Republicans advanced Donald Trump's massive tax and spending cuts bill early Thursday following a mammoth overnight marathon session.

House Republicans pushed back on track Thursday toward passing President Donald Trump’s $4.5 trillion tax breaks and spending cuts bill before a Fourth of July deadline after a record eight-hour plus speech against the package by the Democratic leader.
