$95 billion package without pay-fors adds directly to deficit and borrowing needs.

by

We have been lied to about skinny reconciliation and key priorities. Weak approach by avoiding real debate and offsets. Everyone has deficit concerns but leadership pushes forward anyway. Need more meat on bone before supporting bill.

  • Vance pushed House Republicans to back fiscal blueprint for $95 billion package.
  • Bill covers military funding for Iran conflict, farm aid, and election administration changes.
  • No full spending cuts or pay-fors included drawing fire from deficit hawks.
  • Focus on getting SAVE America Act elements through reconciliation.
  • Some Republicans say they were promised skinny bill with priorities and fraud fixes.
  • Leadership under pressure to deliver wins for Trump on elections and defense.
