As Republican lawmakers wrapped another week on Capitol Hill, they left town without a clear path forward on the biggest sticking points plaguing President Donald Trump’s “one, big beautiful bill.”
But GOP leaders are signaling that before next week, finally, they will make some decisions.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee and the Ways and Means Committee are both expected to mark up their portions of the bill in marathon sessions starting next Tuesday, a signal that leaders at least think they’re close to a consensus on some of the trickiest decisions in the bill, namely, how and how much to cut Medicaid and to what level Republicans will increase the the state and local tax deduction.
