Trump-Backed Reconciliation Push Heads to Senate as House Presses for Speed
TL;DR Summary
House Republicans are pressuring the Senate to quickly pass a Trump-backed budget reconciliation package that would authorize up to about $73 billion in new deficits for defense and Iran-related operations, up to $12 billion in farm aid, and up to $10 billion to advance the SAVE America Act’s voter-ID changes. The plan relies on a simple-majority reconciliation to bypass the filibuster, but Senate Leader Thune has shown hesitance while the White House and Trump push for movement ahead of the midterms.
