House GOP Holdouts Fall in Line to Advance Trump Agenda Bill
After initial resistance from some House Republicans concerned about the bill's $3.3 trillion deficit impact and Medicaid cuts, a group of GOP holdouts ultimately agreed to advance President Donald Trump's massive tax and spending package, clearing a key procedural hurdle in the House. Trump and his team, including Vice President JD Vance and Speaker Mike Johnson, engaged in extensive talks and meetings at the White House to persuade skeptical members, with Dr. Mehmet Oz educating Republicans on Medicaid-related provisions. Senate Republicans had narrowly passed the legislation with a 50–50 vote, requiring Vance’s tie-breaking vote, while centrist Senator Lisa Murkowski expressed hopes for changes in the House, though Speaker Johnson insisted the House would pass the Senate version as is. Despite lingering concerns from various factions, including deficit hawks and the SALT caucus, most Republicans have gradually fallen in line, setting the stage for final passage of the bill, which is seen as a significant legislative victory for Trump’s domestic agenda.
