Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., has come out in support of a Senate GOP effort to move out in front of their House colleagues on the crucial budget reconciliation process.
Republicans in the Senate are looking to push for a vote on a reconciliation bill plan next week, getting out ahead of the House Republicans and steering the process in a different direction.
House Republican leaders are working to come to an agreement with fiscal hawks about what spending cuts to seek in legislation advancing Trump's agenda.
A new internal memo being circulated among certain Republican lawmakers is encouraging a set of talking points to push back on criticism of Trump's foreign policy.
