GOP struggles to secure votes for debt limit bill despite negotiations.

TL;DR Summary
Republican Rep. Dusty Johnson admitted that some of his colleagues will not vote for the debt limit bill, despite the recent deal reached with the White House. Johnson said that the bill was still a win for Republicans, even though some Republicans will not support it. He also hoped that some Democrats would join Republicans in passing the bill. The deal includes a two-year debt ceiling increase, keeping non-defense discretionary spending flat through 2024, clawbacks in COVID and IRS funds, and work requirements for single, able-bodied people up to age 54 who receive food stamps.
