House Republicans may have passed their massive reconciliation bill, but in an interview with NOTUS on Friday, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise suggested GOP lawmakers have plenty more on their to-do list.
Most notably, Republicans want to address government spending — both by codifying cuts and by working through the appropriations process.
As Congress returns for a two-week work period — and the Senate takes up the reconciliation bill to put its legislative thumbprint on the measure — House Republicans are planning to stay busy with a rescission package, appropriations bills and legislation that would reinforce some of President Donald Trump’s executive orders and overturn Biden-era federal regulations through the Congressional Review Act.
