House and Senate Republicans debate which priorities to move on first

NPR  

House and Senate Republicans debate which priorities to move on first Senate and House GOP leaders plan a wide-ranging policy agenda but have a short window to act; and passing bills using rules to get around a filibuster requires near unanimity. NPR congressional correspondent Deirdre Walsh reports that House and Senate Republicans are debating what to do first. DEIRDRE WALSH, BYLINE: John Thune, the incoming Senate majority leader, plans quick action on Trump's priorities. Thune told Senate Republicans the first order of business will be a bill that boosts money for more agents at the southwest border and incentivizes more domestic energy production.
