Republicans haggle over Trump spending plan as fiscal year looms

President Donald Trump proposes amazing discounts in spending.

In requesting his budget for the fiscal year 2026, the president demands that Congress cut 20 % of the spending allocated by lawmakers every year.

“It will witness $ 150 billion (in the discounts) approved in the House of Representatives and the Senate. This is real money,” said Budget Director on Fox News. “I think for the first time, this budget is not dead upon arrival.”

To clarify, the budget sent by Mr. Trump to Capitol Hill is ambitious. All presidential budgets. This is what the president suggests that the legislators – and its management – aim to spend the coming fiscal year. Congress is still accused of voting on 12 annual spending laws that finance the government. The 20 % reduction that President Trump proposed this area of ​​spending.

Reporter’s book: where we stand with a “large and beautiful bill for Trump”

The Trump administration described this scheme as a “thin” budget. This is because it included nothing about Medicare and Medicaid. These social programs consume exorbitant definitely for federal spending – by greatly exceeded what Congress allocates every year. Republicans in Congress aim to make some kind of modifications to these programs in the so -called “big and beautiful bill”. Republicans insist that these programs will not bear discounts. But “cut” in the eye of the beholder.

“We will move about a long-term balanced budget. I love the way we think in the long term instead of short-term,” said Mike Haridopoulos, R-FLA, on Fox News.

In order to be clear, the framework of the Great and Beautiful Republican Party’s draft law does not balance the budget. In fact, it increases the budget deficit. The Budget Package of Mr. Trump is also not balanced. There is no way to understand such a path unless you include Medicare and Medicaid.

But this is what Mr. Trump’s budget request is doing:

It eliminates dollars from each administration and a federal agency, with the exception of the old transportation and warriors. Space programs and people are also safe.

“This is the way the swamp is broken,” announced the gathering of freedom at home. “The fiscal year budget 26 is a typical transformation.”

The president suggests that the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development is 40 %. Wiping the work and interior sections by 30 %.

The senior Republican Armed Senate says that Trump’s budget “tearing military” military capabilities

However, the dollars of the Pentagon are mainly flat.

The defense hawks were APOPLECTIC.

The Chairman of the Armed Services Committee of the Senate Roger Weiss, R-Miss, ignited the scheme of Mr. Trump.

“Trump has successfully carried a campaign on peace through the power agenda. But his advisers to the administration and budget office (OMB) apparently do not listen,” Foam Wekar. “With regard to the defense budget, OMB asked the fifth consecutive year to fund the Biden administration, leaving military spending flat, which is really.”

The former majority leader of the Senate Mitch McConnell, RCK.

McConnell said: “It is strange for the time the president’s advisers spend in talking about restoring peace through power, given their apparent desire to invest according to the national defense or in other critical tools of the national authority.”

“I am very concerned that the basis for defense is not a realistic way to build the military capacity that we need to achieve President Trump “Peace is through the power agenda,” said Mike Rogers, Chairman of the Armed Services Committee in the House of Representatives.

Trump turns on the budget budget bill for the republic, predicts huge tax increases in the United States if it fails

Fort fired at the advocates of defense of Congress and their allegations that seeking budget is undermining the army.

“It is inaccurate fees. We offer a trillion dollars in the national defense spending,” Fion said. “We are doing it in two components.” “We use estimated spending. Then we put in a historical model all increases in defense and internal security. We use it in reconciliation so that we do not only need to use republican voices. We do not want the Democrats to be for the Democrats as a judge to kidnap the process of credits after that to spend home security.”

Let me tell you this statement.

In other words, vaght asserts that some of the Pentagon financing increases will come through a “budget settlement”, as Republicans are now using to pass the beautiful big law. Republicans intend to pass this package with the votes of the Republican Party only. But if the Republicans include that military funds in the normal “credit” bill, Democrats may request “equivalent”. They insisted that non-defensive programs recorded the same increase in exchange for the progress of those bills-and voting to overcome filbuster. Vought is arguing with a joy that prevents the Democrats from carrying the Pentagon dollars in hostility in exchange for money directed towards other programs.

But Democrats focus on what Republicans might try to do with Medicare and Medicaid. They argue that Republicans are making discounts.

“Hospitals will close,” said minority leader in the House of Representatives, Hakim Jeffrez. “Societies will be harmed. The Americans will die.”

Republicans insist that these programs will not face discounts.

“The question is, will we be vulnerable to the comfort and wrong discourse that I just heard from the leader of the democratic minority in the House of Representatives? This is the same tired play that they run.” “We are rewarded because we do this to sustain these programs for the most vulnerable.”

Trump says that public security entitlements will not be touched on the budget bill for the Republican Party budget

However, some even remain concerned about how to deal with the Republican Party with these programs.

“If you want to be in the minority forever, then continue the discounts,” said Senator Josh Holie, R-MO. “It will be disastrous stupid.”

Tax credits of electric cars outside.

“I have no problem if someone wants to buy an electric car. I don’t think the diligent Americans should support this,” said Brian Steel, head of the administration committee at home.

Republicans hope to use the money generated to sell EVS to support the trustee box for highways. The government used the federal gas tax to pay the costs of building roads and bridges. But Congress has not changed the gas tax since the mid -1990s. In addition, there is more EVS and hybrid on the road. Traditional gas -based vehicles are more efficient in fuel consumption. So this makes some of these exhausted tanks.

Johnson is committed to his goal in passing the bill through the home by the day of the anniversary. But some Republicans question that schedule.

“There is no way,” said Senator Ron Johnson, R-WISC, at Fox Business. “Unfortunately, President Trump chose one big and beautiful (Bell). What should have been doing is the multi -step process.”

In other words, legislators could address borders, tax cuts and spending cuts in individual parts. Download everything on one legislative truck makes this difficult.

Can the house approve this within two weeks? There is not much consensus yet. But they may try to wear members.

“We will stay until we pass it.”
