A bill passed by the House on Thursday would raise taxes at universities like Harvard, where the Trump administration has already choked off federal funding because the school has not agreed to its demands for overhauling campus practices.
Senate Republicans say changes are coming for the sprawling domestic policy bill carrying President Trump’s agenda. Their colleagues who took political risks to push it through the House might not like them.
Members of the new Republican majority led by Senator John Thune have made it clear for months that they mean to shape the legislation to their liking.
The House-passed bill includes a large tax cut, as well as more money for defense and immigration enforcement, financed in part by slashing health, nutrition, education and clean energy programs.
