Trump Presses Reluctant GOP Senators to Embrace House's Tax Bill

By and Steven T. Dennis Save President Donald Trump worked the phones Monday and took to social media to try to sway Republican holdouts on his multi-trillion dollar tax bill, encountering conflicting demands from GOP senators even as he urged them to move swiftly. The legislation, which last month passed the House by one vote, faces opposition from both moderates and ultra-conservatives in the Senate, where Trump can afford to lose no more than three votes.

Schumer, Democrats plot coordinated resistance to Trump's 'one ugly bill'

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is coordinating with his colleagues in the House to push back against Senate Republicans' efforts to ram President Donald Trump's wish list of policy desires through the Senate. In a letter to Senate Democrats on Sunday, Schumer, D-N.Y., laid out a multipronged strategy to inflict as much pain on Republicans as possible in the budget reconciliation process, the legislative strategy the GOP is employing to sidestep negotiating with Democrats to advance the president's priorities. Senate Republicans Eye Changes To Trump's Megabill After House Win While congressional Republicans don't need Democrats to move the colossal bill to Trump's desk, Schumer wants to make the process as uncomfortable as possible as Senate Republicans begin a roughly monthlong sprint to put their fingerprints on what Trump deemed a "big, beautiful bill." The top Senate Democrat is coordinating with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and the top Democrats on crucial House committees to "share firsthand insight from their process and key Republican fault lines" with their Senate counterparts. "Based on Senate Republicans' public comments, it's clear that if this reckless reconciliation bill passes the Senate it is very likely to contain changes, forcing it to be sent back to the House of Representatives," Schumer wrote. "That's why we must be united with our House Democratic colleagues to fight this assault on working families." Read On The Fox News App Indeed, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said much of the debate and subsequent tweaks to the bill would focus on finding deeper spending cuts. The House's offering set a goal of $1.5 trillion in spending cuts over the next decade, but some Senate Republicans want to hit $2 trillion, while a smaller cohort of fiscal hawks want to go even deeper. Dems Call Budget Bill 'Bureaucratic Water Torture' As Gop 'Glad To Have The Ball In Our Court' Thune said that Republicans' main focus during the next month would be ensuring that Trump's first-term tax cuts are made permanent with the massive bill and not allowed to expire by the end of the year on the Senate floor, marking the Senate's return on Monday. "We are not going to let that happen, and our biggest focus this month is completing this tax relief legislation with the goal of getting the final bill to the president before the Fourth of July," he said. "It's going to be a very busy month, Mr. President." In all, 10 Senate committees will be tasked with sifting through the massive bill's contents, which include the president's policy desires on taxes, immigration, energy, defense and the national debt. Fetterman Defies 'Punitive' Punishment For Breaking With Democratic Party During Bipartisan Discussion Schumer's edict comes as those committees gear up to make their own revisions to the bill to, in part, fall in line with their own policy and spending desires and to also comply with Senate rules. He noted that Senate Democrats have been working "overtime" to target a litany of policies in the GOP's plan that "are in clear violation of the reconciliation rules and, in some cases, an assault on our very democracy." Some Republicans already have issues with certain policies in the bill, like cuts to Medicaid or the plan to move up the timeline to phase out green energy tax credits ushered in by the Biden administration. Schumer also prodded Democrats to continue aggressively denouncing the bill on the ground in their home states and districts, arguing that "if the American people truly knew how deeply devastating, damaging, and deceitful this Republican plan is, they will reject it." "Republicans' 'One Ugly Bill' is a farce; an attack on the values that make America great," he wrote. "We know the first four months of Donald Trump's presidency have been catastrophic for the American people. It is our duty to fight for American families, to stop the damage, and make certain Republicans are held accountable."Original article source: Schumer, Democrats plot coordinated resistance to Trump's 'one ugly bill'

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul gets a primary challenge from Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado

New York Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado launched a Democratic primary challenge against Gov. Kathy Hochul on Monday, saying in a video announcing his campaign that the state needs 'bold, decisive, transformational leadership.' "Let's not drop the ball on figuring out what it is we're fighting for. We believe in facts, truth, liberty, the rule of law and justice for all," Delgado said. "Listen, the powerful and well-connected have their champions. I'm running for governor to be yours." Delgado did not mention Hochul by name in the video. He told The New York Times, 'People are hurting and New York deserves better leadership.' Hochul selected Delgado to be lieutenant governor and her running mate in May 2022, after then-Lt. Gov. Brian Benjamin was arrested on charges related to campaign finance fraud. Delgado fueled speculation he could challenge Hochul when he announced in February that he would not be Hochul's running mate as she seeks another term next year. Delgado and Hochul have had some high-profile disagreements, including when Delgado called on President Joe Biden to end his 2024 re-election bid and said embattled New York Mayor Eric Adams should resign. Delgado was first elected to the House in 2018, winning a crowded primary that year and going on to defeat GOP Rep. John Faso in a competitive district in the Hudson Valley. Delgado could face a tough race against a sitting governor who has already started to build up her campaign, having reported nearly $15.5 million in her campaign account as of Jan. 15. Hochul also fended off two primary challengers in 2022, easily defeating New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams and Rep. Tom Suozzi. Suozzi posted on X that Delgado is "a talented guy, with a great future," but added, "Based upon my experience this may not be the most well-thought out idea!" Democratic Governors Association Executive Director Meghan Meehan-Draper said in a statement that the DGA is "100 percent behind Governor Hochul as she continues to deliver for New York, take on Donald Trump, and build the operation it will take to beat Republicans up and down the ballot in 2026." "For years, Governor Hochul has been underestimated — and each time proved her critics wrong," Meehan-Draper said. Republicans are eyeing New York as a possible pickup opportunity next year, despite its Democratic lean. New York swung toward Donald Trump more than any other state last year as Trump made gains in other blue states. But it is still an uphill climb for Republicans, as Trump still lost it by 13 points last year. GOP Reps. Mike Lawler and Elise Stefanik have been considering running for governor. Stefanik said in a statement that Hochul's "own Lieutenant Governor that she hand picked is now primarying her which shows she has lost support not just from Republicans and Independents, but Democrat New Yorkers as well." "It is time for new leadership to save New York from the decades of catastrophic failed policies of single-party Democrat rule," she added. Lawler wrote on X that Hochul "must be defeated in 2026 and replaced with a Republican Governor who can restore balance and common sense to Albany." This article was originally published on
