The U.S. House adopted a budget plan that would allow congressional Republicans to bypass Democrats and send President Barack Obama a bill to repeal his landmark health-care law.
The first Senate budget proposal authored by Republicans since 2006 calls for $430 billion in unspecified savings from Medicare, the health care program for seniors
The House plan released Tuesday, straight from Representative Paul Ryans budgets of the past, is sure to run into opposition among Republicans who control the Senate.
The Senate begins debate on a $1.1 trillion U.S. government spending bill today after turmoil in the House yielded narrow passage of the plan amid opposition from Democrats and Republicans alike.
House Speaker John Boehner devised the two-step strategy to keep Tea Party members from using the funding bill to vent their frustration over Obamas executive orders.
House Republicans are readying a proposal to fund the government through September 2015, a party aide said, as some lawmakers debate whether to use the bill to respond to President Barack Obamas immigration orders.
After a televised address last night outlining his actions, Obama planned to travel today to Nevada, a state with a fast-growing Hispanic population emblematic of Latinos rising political power in presidential battleground states.
Obamas unilateral action, circumventing a deadlocked Congress, promises to remove the immediate risk of deportation for 4 million to 5 million undocumented immigrants and initiate a showdown with congressional Republicans.
