Proposed spending cuts are too small for some lawmakers and too large for others.

The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives will try to take its first step on Tuesday toward enacting President Donald Trump's tax-cut and border agenda, giving Speaker Mike Johnson hours to corral wayward Republicans into supporting the effort.

The Senate plan, passed last week, does not include Medicaid cuts. The Senate budget resolution omits tax policy but sets the spending agenda to enact Trump’s border, defense and energy policies, punting negotiations on tax policy to a later date and breaking up the spending plan into two separate measures.
