House Republican leadership is putting pressure on their Senate counterparts over the budget resolution to unlock reconciliation, a process to codify President Donald Trump‘s agenda that the GOP is insistent on passing in the president’s first two years.
In a statement, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA), Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN), GOP Conference Chairwoman Lisa McClain (R-MI), and relevant House committee chairmen called on the Senate to “do its part” and pass the lower chamber’s resolution that calls for “one big, beautiful bill” targeting immigration, energy, the economy, and extending tax credits.
