Senate Republicans in no hurry to deliver Trump’s next reconciliation bill
Senate Republicans are delaying action on President Trump's proposed $350 billion reconciliation bill, with key figures like Ron Johnson, John Cornyn, and John Kennedy expressing doubts about securing 50 Senate votes close to the midterms. While House leaders and some Senate members discuss policy priorities and Pentagon funding, there is no concrete Senate movement on drafting a budget resolution required for reconciliation.
