Washington – Senate on Saturday planned to conduct an important test vote on President Trump’s “Bade, Beautiful Bill” on Saturday, even it is not clear whether there is sufficient support to raise the tax and spending measures above the obstruction.
South Dakota Republican, Senate majority leader John Thyun said on Friday that he did not have votes to pursue the bill, as the upper chamber waited for the decision whether several provisions were complied with with the coordination rules of the Senate, which allows Republicans to pass the bill with a simple majority. Major policy controversies also remained.
The Senate Republican did not release the final edition of its bill until Friday late nightThe senators give it very little time to digest it before taking an initial procedural vote that is necessary to move towards the last route.
Mr. Trump pressurized the Congress to send them a huge package – including tax deduction and money for his immigration and defense priorities until the fourth holiday of July.
In the bill, Republican proposed funding to funding for the Medicade, which provides health insurance to low-income individuals and disabled people, and to help pay for food assistance benefits-or food ticket-to priorities under the supplementary nutrition aid program.
Last week, Senate MP determined Some of the most controversial provisions in the package violated a rule that controls the reconciliation process, which requires the law only involves provisions that have a direct impact on federal expenses. Ruling instructed Republican to leave those sections from the package or write them again.
Meanwhile, in the leadership of votes, the dispute over the cut in the medicade spending, the state and the local tax deduction and the increase in a planned debt roof is still gender between the Republican.
House Republicans Narrowly passed A version of the bill in May. And the lower chamber is expected to be called back to Washington to vote on the Senate version when he escapes from the upper chamber in the coming days. But the House Republican has warned that any major changes made by the Senate placed the ability to make it at risk again through the house.
