Congressional Republicans are facing some tough decisions as they return from their spring break. With up to $5 trillion in tax cuts on the table, they must figure out how to pay for them. This includes determining how much health spending will be cut and when Health and Human Services Department Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will be summoned to testify before Congress.
Before their recess, Republicans passed the blueprint for President Trump’s tax cuts, which outlined spending and savings targets for each committee. To pass these cuts, they are utilizing budget reconciliation to avoid the filibuster and pass the bill without Democratic support.
As the debate over tax cuts continues, Republicans will need to carefully consider the implications of their decisions on healthcare spending and overall government revenue. These decisions will have far-reaching effects on the economy and the American public.
