Mike Johnson Faces Narrow Path To Pass Trump’s Legislative Agenda
House aims to vote on budget resolution to unlock Trump agenda in key test for Johnson
House Speaker Mike Johnson continued meeting with members of his conference who were not yet satisfied with the plan Monday night.
House Republicans remain divided over the budget blueprint to jumpstart the process to advance Trump's agenda, putting a vote planned for Tuesday evening in jeopardy.
The House speaker is set to put a budget resolution up for a floor vote on Tuesday but is facing a potential revolt from swing-district Republicans.
“Johnson faces some bleak arithmetic: No Democrats are expected to back the budget plan, and if all members are present and voting, he can lose only one Republican and still approve it,” POLITICO’s Meredith Lee Hill and Nicholas Wu report. Still, some GOP lawmakers are optimistic.
Speaker Mike Johnson pressed ahead with plans for a Tuesday night vote on the House G.O.P. budget resolution even as threatened defections piled up.
House Republican leadership is working to pass a budget resolution on Tuesday to pave the way for President Trump’s agenda, but opposition has emerged from all sides of the conference.
House Speaker Mike Johnson said stimulus checks tied to DOGE actions would make the Republican party look good, but added he preferred to pay off national debt.
