Johnson races to make progress on Reconciliation 3.0 as Republicans balk

Speaker Mike Johnson is pushing House Republicans to finalize a budget resolution by Thursday to advance a reconciliation package aimed at bypassing Senate filibuster rules. The proposed $87 billion plan includes defense and agriculture funding and elements of the SAVE America Act, but faces pushback from GOP members seeking more details and assurances about funding offsets. Johnson lacks current support for the measure, and internal party tensions are rising as leaders work to narrow the scope of 'Reconciliation 3.0'.
