Can the Senate Meet Their Deadline?

“Senate Republicans have three weeks to meet their leadership’s goal of passing a massive party-line reconciliation bill before the July 4 recess,” Punchbowl News reports.

“Privately, GOP senators, the White House and House Republican leaders are split on whether they can pull it off. Some have indicated they don’t see July 4 as a real deadline. Indeed, it’s an artificial one, though the debt limit hangs over the process. But as Senate Majority Leader John Thune knows, nothing gets senators motivated more than a deadline.”
