Tillis, who is up for re-election next year in battleground North Carolina, voted against advancing a bill for Trump's domestic policy agenda Saturday evening.

U.S. Sen. Thom Tillis, a North Carolina Republican, broke with his party Saturday and said he would not support the federal “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” the sweeping budget package that would enact much of President Donald Trump’s agenda.

Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina said Sunday he will not seek reelection next year, a day after announcing his opposition to President Donald Trump’s tax breaks and spending cuts package because of its reductions to healthcare programs.
