Johnson pushes 'aggressive' timetable for House to pass Trump's budget bill after GOP mutiny: 'We cannot fail'

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said he remains confident the House can pass President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill" by Memorial Day despite Friday's committee mutiny.

"We’re on track, working around the clock to deliver this nation-shaping legislation for the American people as soon as possible," Johnson said during an appearance on "Fox News Sunday" regarding ongoing negotiations. "All 11 of our committees have wrapped up their work, and they spent less and saved more than even we’ve projected initially. This really is a once in a generation opportunity that we have here."  Danielle Wallace is a breaking news and politics reporter at Fox News Digital.

After the bill advances through the budget committee, Johnson said the plan is to move the legislative package to the House Rules Committee by mid-week and then to the House floor by the end of the week "so we meet our initial, our original Memorial Day deadline."
