Holdouts put House budget resolution in jeopardy over spending cuts

Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) plan for “one big beautiful” reconciliation bill may be in trouble as he faces pushback from House Republicans across the ideological spectrum, with some concerned over cuts to beneficiary programs and others arguing the budget resolution does not go far enough.

House leadership is hoping to move swiftly on approving its budget resolution, with a vote set for Tuesday evening, the Washington Examiner confirmed. But Johnson is getting hit from both sides, as both centrists and hard-liners’ skepticism of the bill is leading to a possible delay in the process.
