“This is exactly why we went to the office, to turn this country around as quickly as possible. And that the president was in full form tonight. And I am so excited to be part of this change,” said Haridopolos. “You could feel the energy in the room, and I think people are very enthusiastic about getting this agenda through and to see the results more importantly.”
It comes to negotiate as Republicans about how they can use them Razor-Dun Meerities In the house and the Senate to pass on massive conservative policy changes through budget coordination.
By reducing the threshold for Senate step From 60 votes to a simple majority of 51 seats, reconciliation enables a party to check both conference rooms to make radical changes, provided that they are relevant to budgetary and tax policy.
However, there has been disagreement for weeks about how the priorities of the GOP can be packed. Senate Republicans have insisted on splitting the package into two accounts to score early victories in the field of border security and energy policy, while the more complex issue of tax reform for a second invoice is lagging behind.
Republican leaders of the house, however, are concerned that the heavy political lift that entails a reconciliation law means that legislators no longer have time before they can extend the tax reductions of Trump 2017, which will expire at the end of this year.

“I thought that message is quite uniting. I do that. I think the performance sometimes gets messy,” Bacon said.
“While I was there, I had a businessman from Omaha who does wind energy, and he is worried about what that means. So I think it’s … a little more can be aimed. Sometimes I think people scares the periphery that their company is that their company will be influenced. “
But the National Republican Congress Commission President Richard Hudson, RN.C., who has the task of leading Republicans during the 2026 interim elections, said that leaders would have the details if they were necessary while they credit Trump with bringing the Gop together .

Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, RN.Y., said that she was “very happy to” hear Trump at a lower tax rate for new domestic production, in particular with regard to medicines.
