Republicans split on best path to advance Trump's agenda in Congress
Briefly

Republicans in the House and Senate are adopting conflicting strategies regarding President Trump's key policy initiatives, particularly pertaining to funding for border security and tax cuts. The Senate budget committee is set to push through a budget resolution aimed at providing substantial financial resources to enhance southern border security and military spending. Senator Lindsey Graham pointed out the urgency in securing these funds, stating that failure to do so would reflect poorly on the Republican Party. Meanwhile, Senate Republicans advocate for a two-bill strategy for efficiency, contrasting with the House's preference for a single comprehensive bill.
Lindsey Graham emphasized the urgency for Republicans to secure funding for Trump's border agenda, stating, 'If we cannot provide the money... we have nobody to blame but ourselves.'
Senate Republicans prefer a two-bill strategy to expedite Trump's border priorities, with concerns that a combined approach could complicate and delay the passage.
