UPDATE: ‘One Big Beautiful Bill.’
We’ve gotten a ton of questions on what’s NEXT. Here’s a breakdown:
This week, Senate GOP will begin to “scrub” the 1,000+ page bill to comply with something called the Byrd rule.
I’ve called it the “Byrd Bath.”
In short: because reconciliation (this bill) is a fast-track process that only requires 51 Senate votes versus 60, there are strict rules for compliance. The bill must directly impact federal spending or taxes.
For example, liberals previously tried to use their own reconciliation process to give mass amnesty to illegal aliens, but they FAILED (aka, it didn’t pass the Byrd rule) because it would’ve been a huge policy change that outweighed budget impact.
Note: The House is NOT bound by the Byrd rule—only we are. I’ve used this example: the House has to fit through a garage door, the Senate has to squeeze through a window in the garage door.
It just comes down to process. We’ve got one shot to get it right. President Trump knows about the Byrd rule, and we’re in 24/7 communication to PASS THE BILL and DELIVER
