GOP infighting puts House Speaker Johnson’s budget resolution at risk
House Speaker Mike Johnson’s $95 billion budget resolution faces resistance from Republicans in the House and Senate, as fiscally conservative members oppose the lack of spending cuts and Vice President JD Vance fails to secure full support. The proposal, which includes defense funding for an Iran war, farmer aid, and election restrictions, is narrower than President Donald Trump’s original request and risks stalling in the Senate due to skepticism about a third reconciliation bill.
