The 2025 budget-reconciliation 'process' is the key to surviving the 2026 elections.
The priority for President-elect Trump and every member of the Republican majorities in the House and Senate has to be the new budget resolution and the reconciliation process it unlocks. The GOP Conferences on both sides of the Hill have to arrive in January prepared to go far with the budget resolution and to go fast. The Tax Policy Center explains the budget-reconciliation process in succinct fashion: 'Reconciliation legislation is passed through an expedited process.
Did you note that impeachment enthusiast Congressman Jeremy Raskin successfully took over the position of ranking Democratic Member of the House Judiciary Committee this week? That was a big story that didn’t get much attention, what with Trump arriving in Paris and Assad bolting from Damascus.
But occasions for quick action do arise. The Congress has passed more than two dozen budget resolutions since the process was provided for in the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. President Biden and Congressional Democrats availed themselves of the process in 2017 and 2018 when they hosed down their favored constituencies with cash. Such short-sighted excess purchased inflation and not much more. Trump and the GOP Congressional leadership want much, much more.
