House Republicans passed a budget resolution on a party-line vote of 217-215 Tuesday night, clearing a major hurdle on the way to funding President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” agenda.

President Donald Trump praised the unity of Republicans on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday morning, writing, “Big First Step Win for Speaker Mike Johnson, and AMERICA. Now let’s start to BALANCE THE BUDGET. IT CAN BE DONE!!!”
