GOP May Pass Budget Whose Numbers Don’t Match

“President Donald Trump wants action now, unity later, on his legislative agenda. The result is a budget with numbers that don’t match up,” Politico reports.

“Republican leaders are expected to embrace a novel strategy as they seek to push forward as soon as this coming week with their partisan package of tax cuts, border security enhancements, military spending and more. Rather than align House and Senate committees behind the same savings targets in the budget framework for that megabill, they want to set different numbers for each chamber.”
