‘One, Big, Beautiful Bill’ Sputters, Sending House Leaders Scrambling for a Solution
- Details
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand

Update 4/10/25, 1:02 p.m. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) held a joint press conference Thursday morning announcing a potential deal over $1.5 trillion in cuts. The bill passed the House hours later by a 216-214 vote.
When House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) challenged Speaker Mike Johnson to a one-on-one debate over the budget plan, he meant it as a dare. But after weeks of arguing with his own party, a conversation with Democrats might be a pleasant change of pace for the Republican.
The Louisianan would certainly be practiced up after days of tense cross-talk over the framework to start delivering on the president’s agenda. For the GOP, there hasn’t been a break from those strained discussions, not even at Tuesday night’s National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) gala, where President Trump unleashed on his party’s holdouts for claiming the Senate bill doesn’t go far enough on things like spending cuts and deficit reduction. To the dozen or more conservatives who didn’t commit to backing the other chamber’s bill to unlock the reconciliation process, the president’s message was a biting one.

Planned Parenthood’s Demise?

Republican Members of the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate have been working diligently on the process known as reconciliation that will allow a tax and spending bill to be passed with simple majorities. The next step in that process is for the House to agree to the Senate’s version of a budget resolution, despite different levels of spending cuts. Thankfully, both chambers and the White House have found areas of unity — the need to protect taxpayer money from waste, fraud, and unpopular spending. One such issue is the need to prevent our hard-earned money from being used to promote and perform abortions.

Editor’s note: This story is part of a two-story package today. The other story can be found here.
The S.C. taxpayer cost of investigations connected to the disputed $1.8 billion totals more than $8 million so far – and could grow by the millions.
The overall amount includes more than $5.3 million in legal fees and costs paid by four state agencies – the offices of the attorney general, comptroller general, auditor and treasurer – to five outside law firms; and nearly $2.7 million paid to a consulting firm hired by the Department of Administration, according to records obtained recently by The Nerve under the S.C. Freedom of Information Act.
Those records revealed more than $1.2 million in previously unknown legal fees and costs collectively paid by the auditor’s and treasurer’s offices.

Eliminating Earmarks

A simple first step in cutting taxes
Earmarks, pet projects, and pork are different terms which mean the same thing: tax dollars requested by elected official used to pay for politically motivated projects.
South Carolina’s earmark process is particularly egregious- there is very little transparency in the process to ensure your tax dollars are used in an efficient way reflective of the request for which they were distributed, and there is virtually zero accountability.
Each year, the General Assembly approves budgets chalk full of pork spending totaling hundreds of millions of dollars for horse races, wine festivals, podcasts, and Lego societies.
