WASHINGTON—The U.S. Senate will vote on a resolution that will enable Congress to begin passing budgetary legislation that funds many of President Donald Trump’s campaign promises, according to an announcement from Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) on Tuesday.
Many of the initiatives that the Trump administration seeks to undertake—such as constructing a wall along parts of the U.S. border with Mexico, removing illegal immigrants from the United States, and extending the lower income tax rates enacted in 2017—will require Congress to grant new funding.
