Trump heads to the Hill to rally Republicans for his budget bill facing key hurdle

President Trump is meeting with House Republicans to push a significant budget package containing his legislative priorities, facing internal party divisions that threaten its passage. He emphasized party unity and warned dissenters they could be quickly sidelined, while House Speaker Mike Johnson can only afford three defections in the upcoming vote, with all Democrats expected to oppose it. Key issues include conservative demands for deeper spending cuts and changes to Medicaid, while moderates resist significant cuts, creating tension as the legislation moves through the Rules Committee before a crucial vote.
