The Senate is hard at work on the President’s Big, Beautiful Bill. A few of the upper chamber’s committees plan to release their markups this week, and Majority Leader John Thune expects a full floor vote toward the end of June.
Let the IFA community know how to pray for you.
According to POLITICO, the Commerce Committee plans to reveal its markups today, while the Banking Committee plans to release its markups on tomorrow.
POLITICO shares more about this scheduling plan and what’s going on behind-the-scenes in the Senate:
The scheduling logic: Just as the House sequenced its megabill markups from least-to-most controversial to buy lawmakers more time to resolve their stickier policy debates, the Senate will have committees release their least-contentious draft bills first. Finance, which has jurisdiction over tax cuts and changes to Medicaid, is widely expected to be among the final Senate panels to release text, if not the last.
The massive tax-and-spending package will āmost likelyā hit the Senate floor the last full week of June, ahead of the July 4 recess, per Senate Majority Leader John Thune.
It could come even sooner ā but that depends on how conversations go with the Senate parliamentarian, Elizabeth MacDonough. Committee staffers started vetting the megabill with MacDonough last week and will continue their talks this week and next. MacDonoughās job is to recommend which House-passed provisions and policy priorities must be dropped to comply withĀ the strict rulesĀ governing the filibuster-skirting budget reconciliation process.
POLITICO also notes that President Trump has been very involved in the process, talking with senators to get the bill moving. He has reportedly met with Leader Thune and Senator Rick Scott and spoken over the phone with Senators Ron Johnson and Josh Hawley. Senator Johnson made headlines last month for questioning the spending authorized by the bill. Perhaps his conversation with the President eased some of his concerns.
As this massive bill moves through the Senate, it’s important that we pray. Let’s pray over each and every member of Congress as they consider this legislation. Pray that they are wise and prudent so that they send the best possible version of the Big, Beautiful Bill to the President’s desk!

We are praying for God to give you wisdom
Father, I pray for wisdom and a spirit of unity as this bill is discussed in the Senate and returns to the House. Open hearts to do what is wise.
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men, yet they cannot fathom the work that God has done from beginning to end. Ecclesiastes 3:11
O, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments, and untraceable His ways! āWho has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been His counselor? Who has first given to God, that God should repay him? For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen.ā¦” Romans 11:33-36
For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Therefore He is able to save completely those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to intercede for them. 1 Timothy 2:5, Hebrews 7:25
Dear LORD, You are the Eternal One: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This bill is confounding in its complexity but so imperative to a good future. I pray it pleases You to impart great wisdom and counsel to every Senate member. I pray in the time allowed and with Your direction from beginning to end, this WILL BE a beautiful bill. Please guide the work necessary to make it so. May every jot and tittle be from You, through You and when rendered done, glorify You. I ask this and so much more, in the Name of Jesus Christ, our Mediator and Intercessor. Amen
I pray that God will take care of this.

I pray that the issue of no healthcare to 1.4 million
people would not be misleading. These 1.4 million people are illegal immigrants enrolled in state funded health programs. Lord, we pray for clarity and truth in examining every aspect of this bill. In Jesus Name!
Proverbs 22:16
16. He who oppresses the poor to increase his riches, and he who gives to the rich, will surely come to poverty
DEAR LORD GOD
PLEASE ALLOW THIS BILL TO FULFIL THE ORIGINAL INTENT AS STATED BY POTUS AND THAT THE OFFENDING PARTS ARE REMOVED.
I ASK IN JESUSā NAME
AMEN
I was grateful for the revelation of Representative Green who found that a provision was placed that keeps states from limiting AI for 10 years. My prayer is that this is a provision that will be dealt with and eliminated. AI computers can now stop themselves from being shut down. May God give wisdom in every area of this bill to each Senator.
My prayer is that this bill does not increase the already bloated national debt. We simply can’t afford it.
The Senate needs to be careful to not mark it up too much. If they do mark it up a lot, then it will not be “beautiful” anymore.
Lord , I pray you have your hands on this bill and that it will come out the way You want it to be.
I pray our leaders listen to You when they make the changes and they will not be deceived by the evil ones.
I thank you and praise you for taking care of us.
No weapon formed against us will prosper!
We love you Lord!
Please get this bill passed, but add enduing Joe Bidens executive orders, exclude the 10 years of AI unrestricted….let the states approve it themselves, end all the gun restrictions, Abolish the ATF, Defund planned parenthood for all there abuses, Make Sheria Law against the law in all 50 states. Make Moslem Citys for Moslems only illegal in all 50 states, get rid of all LGBQT, Transgender surgery’s, CRT, and all the “Woke Garbage” out of ALL Schools and government.
What is going to happen to the people that can’t work this is not fair to those people that can’t get a job do to there health
If you canāt work for any credible reason then your Medicaid will not be affected but if you are able bodied then it is grossly unfair and now economically impossible to expect others to do
So. When this happens All insurance goes up to make up the gap
Lord, only when righteousness and justice prevail, will our nation experience good government. To the extent that each of our representatives and senators submit to You and to Your instruction and guidance will we receive good legislation – so I continue to pray for their salvation, deliverance and Holy Spirit transformation. In the meantime, please work through fallen man to accomplish Your will and purposes in the passage of this bill.
Lord Jesus, I thank You for president Trump and his vision for America. I pray, Lord, that you will give all the Senators who will be making these markups guidance and wisdom as they proceed with this process. I pray that the final bill will be beneficial to all Americans. Thank You Jesus.
I pray for each and every member who is working on this bill. May they hear your direction in the decisions they have to make. I pray against any obstacles and may unity come between these members and help them to think of their constituents instead of personal gain. I pray you keep your hand upon these men and women elected to be the voice of the people.
Hands off Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP and ALL Social Net programs that are paid by way of taxation. Do not steal from the most vulnerable of society. Only an immoral, thieving, unGodly pack of Representatives would vote for any legislation that would seriously harm the most vulnerable in society. Remove the Medicare and any other social net mandates from the so big but not so beautiful bill. NOW! Lives depend on it!
u better believe it….
I pray that God intervene!
I pray that all illegal aliens be removed from these programs. Continuing to allow non-Americans to use our resources would be immoral and ungodly.
I pray that only people who truly need the help would be allowed to stay on these programs. I pray that all people who are able bodied will be given the drive and motivation to be contributors to society and not drains. I pray that our government workers will have wisdom to know the difference. I pray that congress would codify the important work DOGE has done so that our nation won’t be in so much financial trouble. Save us, Lord. We need your help.
My prayer is that everyone becomes educated about all the fraud and corruption that surrounds Social Programs. Only those who truely qualify for public funds should receive them
No one wants qualified people to miss out on aid and this bill does NOT allow for that. Please read up on what will be cut and why from those programs, cutting out benefits which go to those who deserve them are not even in the bill. Education Information is key
