Losers included Democratic leadership, as House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., saw his caucus vote as a bloc, but with just shy of the partisan force necessary to block the bill.

One particularly upset "loser" in the bill’s passage was House Homeland Security Committee ranking member Bennie Thompson of Mississippi.

"You can’t shovel s—t and call it sugar," Thompson fumed in a Thursday statement.

"This horrific bill is one of the most shameful grifts I have ever seen played on the American public," he added.

Abortion providers also lost out via the bill, as it reportedly bans Medicaid disbursements to Planned Parenthood for one year, which could lead to decreased revenue for such organizations.

Opponents of SALT, including members of the HFC also essentially lost out, given the fact the deduction remained intact and was somewhat bolstered.

The bill’s slashing of green energy tax credits also renders that particular corporate sector – including wind, solar and EV concerns – another potential loser in the BBB.
