Speaker Mike Johnson was forced to punt a critical vote tonight to advance President Donald Trump’s agenda, according to multiple lawmakers and aides familiar with the plans.
House Republican leaders abruptly pulled their budget resolution from the floor on Tuesday evening after failing to secure support from a small group of conservative fiscal hawks who threatened to derail the framework for President Trump’s legislative agenda.
In a dramatic turn of events, top GOP lawmakers scrapped the scheduled vote after lobbying holdouts on the House floor for more than an hour. The previous vote remained open far longer than expected, giving leaders time to negotiate with those opposing the measure.
On Monday and Tuesday, Trump personally engaged with holdouts, including fiscal conservatives wary of its impact on the deficit and moderates concerned about possible Medicaid cuts, in an effort to secure their support for the "one big beautiful bill."
However, their attempts seem to have fallen short, marking a setback for Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and his leadership team as they try to advance Trump's domestic policy agenda.
It's unclear when leaders will try again for a vote on the legislation, which sets out broad guidelines for a package encompassing Trump’s tax, border, and energy priorities, along with spending cuts to offset costs and a $4 trillion increase in the debt limit.
With time running out, Johnson has reiterated his goal to pass a budget resolution by the end of this month in hopes of having a final bill on Trump's desk by the end of May.
