Donald Trump faces storms and headwinds as he tries to get his signature spending bill across the line by a Friday deadline.
That’s both literal and figurative storms and headwinds. Severe weather grounded planes in D.C.-area airports on Tuesday, while House lawmakers scrambled to get back to Washington after the “Big Beautiful Bill” scraped through the Senate.
The House could vote on its final passage as early as Wednesday, if it manages to clear a procedural vote first thing in the morning that several rebel Republicans are threatening to oppose. The president wants the bill passed by July 4, but various GOP lawmakers have cast doubt on that timeline and criticized the version of the spending package that’s emerged from the Senate.
