“Senate Republicans said they expected to begin voting on amendments to the domestic policy bill at 9 a.m. Monday, after taking a break likely sometime after midnight, rather than working all night,” the New York Times reports.
“The decision not to move from debate straight into the so-called vote-a-rama, an hours-long series of votes on amendments, could indicate that Republican leaders are still struggling to lock in support.”
Washington Post: “The GOP is racing to push the mammoth budget proposal across Trump’s desk by a self-imposed July 4 deadline, but fissures remain within the party over the cuts to social benefit and anti-poverty programs and the bill’s growing price tag.”
Wall Street Journal: “If the Senate manages to pass the bill, getting the measure to Trump by Republicans’ self-imposed July 4 deadline would require another vote from the House. That might be challenging in that chamber as well, where Republicans have a narrow 220-212 majority and their initial version of the bill passed by just one vote last month.”
