Pass few bills but put a lot in them.
The House needs to combine numerous items in one large reconciliation bill. Some in Trumps inner circle want several, but Speaker Johnson has stated that the President wants one large bill.
That bill will cover border security, energy, and an extension of Trump’s 2017 tax law.
Reconciliation allows Congress to pass party-line policies on taxes and spending with simple majority votes, bypassing the Senate’s standard 60-vote requirement for legislation. Marshaling Trump’s policies into one bill would allow the incoming administration to advance their agenda.
