- House Republicans home in on $80B reconciliation package
House Republican leaders and White House officials are finalizing an $80 billion reconciliation package, including $67 billion for Pentagon programs and $11 billion for farm assistance. The deal faces criticism from GOP fiscal hawks due to a lack of offsetting spending cuts, though the farm aid portion was reduced from earlier proposals. The budget framework could be presented to the House floor next week if cleared by the Budget Committee.
