GOP rebels' fury over spending cuts may force Trump budget bill to miss key deadline
Fox News
House Republicans are working to pass President Donald Trump's agenda via the budget reconciliation process, but there are already disagreements on government spending.
But Republican hardliners on the House Budget Committee balked at GOP leaders’ initial proposal for spending cuts late last week, multiple people told Fox News Digital, pushing for a steeper starting point in negotiations with the Senate.

"The budget resolution is almost certainly not going to move through committee this week," one Budget Committee source told Fox News Digital. "Frankly, what was put forward by leadership at the retreat was so far off the mark – literally increasing deficits even further."
