Senate GOP Strategizes 2025 Agenda with Focus on Border and Taxes
TL;DR Summary
Incoming Senate Majority Leader John Thune is preparing to introduce two major partisan bills early in the Trump administration, focusing on border, defense, and energy, using budget reconciliation to bypass the Senate filibuster. This approach allows Republicans to pass legislation without Democratic support, though it may face challenges due to the House's narrow majority and Senate procedural rules. Thune's plan reflects Republican efforts to advance their legislative agenda swiftly, with a focus on budget-related measures.
