GOP governors back new reconciliation bill as Senate sputters
Nearly two dozen GOP governors support President Donald Trump's push for a new party-line spending bill, urging Senate Republicans to pass a budget resolution to address elections, defense, and farm aid. The effort coincides with a closed-door meeting between White House officials and Senate Republicans, as Senate Majority Leader John Thune faces challenges in securing votes for the bill.
