The Freedom Caucus sidestepped House GOP leadership and released its own budget resolution on Monday as Republicans continue to argue over the best path forward for reconciliation.
The “Emergency Border Control Resolution” follows the hardline conservatives’ two-step budget reconciliation approach, which is also favored by many Senate Republicans. The resolution would provide $200 billion in new funding for military, defense, and border security, as well as $486.3 billion in spending cuts that would result in $286 billion in deficit reduction over 10 years.
