Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer forced a name change
for President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill" just before it
passed the upper chamber of Congress.
As Senator Pete Ricketts, Republican from Nebraska, presided
over the Senate, Schumer raised a point of order against lines three through
five of the first page of the legislative plan, which read: "SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the 'Big, Beautiful Bill Act.'"
Schumer declared that the bill's title violated Section 313
B1A of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, sometimes known as the "Byrd
Rule."
Ricketts declared that the point of order was affirmed,
meaning the text would be removed from the measure.
