House Republicans to move forward with budget plan as Senate pursues competing proposal
CBSN
Washington — Speaker Mike Johnson said Tuesday that House Republicans expect to move forward on a budget plan later this week that lays a foundation for approving President Trump's agenda, though a budget resolution has yet to be released.
"We'll be rolling out the details of that probably by tonight," Johnson said at a news conference Tuesday, adding that "we are right on the schedule that we need to be on."
Leaders in Congress have been pursuing a massive legislative package under the budget reconciliation process that would enact Mr. Trump's agenda, including resources to bolster border security, extend some of the 2017 tax cuts, incentivize domestic manufacturing and invest in American energy, while working to trim government programs and address the debt limit. But the process has faced delays amid intraparty disagreement on how to proceed. And the stalled progress in the House has prompted the Senate to move ahead with its own proposal in recent days.
