House Budget Committee rejects reconciliation bill
The House Budget Committee May 16 voted 21-16 against advancing the fiscal year 2025 budget reconciliation bill, with five Republicans joining all Democrats in voting “no.” Reps. Chip Roy, R-Texas, Ralph Norman, R-S.C., Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., Josh Brecheen, R-Okla., and Lloyd Smucker, R-Pa., voted against the package during a markup.
