Mike Johnson Steers Trump’s Budget Through Tumultuous House Vote to Victory
On Tuesday, under intense pressure and after a brief withdrawal from the floor, the House passed a GOP budget resolution, a crucial victory for Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). This budget plan, praised by President Donald Trump as “one big, beautiful bill,” includes $4.5 trillion in tax breaks and $2 trillion in spending cuts—elements of Trump’s domestic agenda omitted in the Senate’s version. The passage represents a significant step towards realizing the President’s vision.
