AMNA NAWAZ: Well, it's looking like a# make-or-break weekend for the president's## big budget bill and his hope of passing it# by July 4.

Republican senators have not yet## posted text of their proposal, but "PBS News Hour"# has learned they hope to start voting tomorrow.

Congressional correspondent Lisa Desjardins was# again back on the Hill today and joins us now.

Good to see you, Lisa.

LISA DESJARDINS: H.. AMNA NAWAZ: So, .. that the president calls the big, beautiful bill?

LISA DESJARDINS: Still big.

I would say# right now more uncertain than anything else.

My sources are telling me that Republicans in the# Senate hope to post their text tonight.

It sure## would be nice to see ahead of the vote, which they# are hoping to have tomorrow.

But hope is the right## word here, because across the Capitol and both# chambers, this bill has hit a number of snags.

I want to look through just some of them.# These are the major ones, first, a few with## Medicaid.

There, you can see there are issues# with the timeline.

Some senators want to delay## the Medicaid cuts.

There's issues also with rural# hospitals.

And, increasingly, we're hearing from## House members they are concerned that undocumented# immigrants can still get coverage through states.

The parliamentarian ruled that out, but they# want it.

They want to make sure that provision## comes back.

There's a state and local tax# deduction.

There's green energy tax cuts.

But,## wait, there's still more snags that# they have to deal with here.

And you## see the federal land sales and also artificial# intelligence regulation, all of this in play.

Trying to get these through the# parliamentarian and through both## chambers really means that the Senate# leader and House speaker have their work## cut out for them.

But they're trying# to move forward as soon as tomorrow.

AMNA NAWAZ: And we know the President# Trump is pushing hard for this.

He## wants it done by July 4.

He's made a# lot of big statements about the bill## in the past couple of days.

I know you# have read through the latest version## that's out there.

You have gone through the# numbers.

What do we know about what he said?

LISA DESJARDINS: Well, let's# start with what he said about## the biggest benefit that's in this bill.

DONALD TRUMP, President of the United States:# It's a great bill.

It's a massive tax cut.

If## it's not approved, your taxes will# go up by 68 percent.

Think of that,## 68, a record, the highest in the history.

LISA DESJARDINS: This needs some context.

He is right.

Myself and producer Doug Adams# checked this out.. tax increase in history, but only by dollar# figures, not by percent of GDP.

That other number,## 68 percent tax increase, that's not right, Amna.# I think Republicans would say that's a conflation.

The actual number is that 64 percent# of Americans could see a tax increase.

AMNA NAWAZ: OK. And you also, I know, have# been talking about the changes to Medicaid.

The## president has been talking about that as well.# What has he said?

What do we know to be true?

LISA DESJARDINS: That's right.

I want to look at a specific.. DONALD TRUMP: We're cutting $1.7 trillion# in this bill and you're not going to feel## any of it.

And your Medicaid is# left alone.

It's left the same.

LISA DESJARDINS: OK, specifically, let's go# back over what he just said there.

Here's a## checklist so we can go through it.# He said there are $1.7 trillion in## cuts.

You won't feel any of it and# Medicaid is the same as it is now.

Let's start by you and I talking about# that first one.

Are there $1.7 trillion## in spending cuts in this bill?

By one# estimate, the Penn Wharton estimate,## yes, there is.

So when you look at that and try# and talk about it, it's accurate or not, you can## check that off the list that indeed that one, that# first one, the $1.7 trillion, that's accurate.

Let's look at the next one.# You won't feel the cuts.

Amna,## this bill contains cuts across many sectors,# not just Medicaid, but also student loans,## for example, things that hit a wide# variety of American life.

Well,## some Americans may not feel it.

By congressional# budget estimates, millions of Americans will.

So when you look at that checklist# again, that is something we have## to put an X on.

That's not accurate.# Finally, let's end with that last one,## that Medicaid will be the same.

This# one is also a bit simple.

I think even## Republicans would say, no, that's not# right.

They want to change Medicaid.

And when you look at the idea here, is it# being cut or not, Republicans will say,## well, we're cutting the rate of growth, not# necessarily cutting -- there will be more## spending on it.

But that cut in the rate of growth# is significant.

It would be a cut in spending.

AMNA NAWAZ: Lisa Desjardins with some important# clarifications tonight, thank you, as always.

LISA DESJARDINS: You're welcome.
