The House of Representatives this week will take up a Senate budget blueprint, the next step in the lengthy process to implement President Donald Trump’s agenda.

In the early morning hours of April 5, following a marathon vote series on amendments required by the rules of the process, the Senate advanced the resolution in a mostly party-line 51–48 vote. The only Republican opponents were Rand Paul of Kentucky and Susan Collins of Maine.
