House Republican leader wants reps to 'publicly' denounce Senate GOP’s delay of key vote

Raw Story  

Both chambers of Congress are controlled by Republican majorities. Politico reported Monday that even though the House Republican Conference has already cemented its support of its single-bill strategy, a vote in the GOP-run Senate may not happen for several more weeks. According to Politico reporter Meredith Lee Hill, this angered House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, with him calling on "senior Republicans in the room to publicly voice their criticism of the timeline," according to three unnamed sources. The House Republican budget bill has multiple controversial provisions that are likely to face resistance from even some Republicans in the Senate. Senate Republicans are reportedly "flirting" with breaking up their budget resolution into two bills, with the proposed tax cut package getting its own separate legislation.
