Within the drama of the night that caused Trump’s tax bill passing through 1 voting

It was almost 22 hours on Sunday night when the president of the house, Mike Johnson, r-la., Surprised the journalists in the hallway of the Cannon House office building.

The Top Chamber Republican made a low key visit, but largely, to the Chamber’s budget commission before the group’s second meeting on the “Great and Beautiful Bill” of President Donald Trump. The first meeting of May 16 had exploded without a resolution when four fiscal falcons suffered the legislation and voted against advancing -in the complete chamber.

“The real debate was, is when [we] Was voted for not to approve the budget. And the reason I did this, along with others, was that we needed to improve the provisions, “Fox News Digital told Fox News Digital.

“It was our opportunity to make a bill that was generally good, better. And this was the impetus to stop the budget, and then obtain some concessions. And then when he arrived at the Rules Committee, there was really not so much dissertation.”

The meeting of the Committee continued with little fanfare, except for democratic objections to the bill, before a more Johnson visit, when he indicated the agreement.

“I think what is about to happen here is that all members, all Republican members, will give a vote that allows us to move forward, and we count it as a great victory tonight,” said Johnson.

He was right, with the legislation moving exactly by the party line.

Fox News Digital said that the conservatives provided for what is called the manager amendment, a vehicle with a wide flexibility to change the legislation, before the Chamber’s Rules Committee vote to advance the bill in the Complete Chamber.

The Chamber’s Rules Committee acts as a final goalkeeper in most invoices before voting throughout the house. Trump himself made a rare visit to Capitol Hill on May 20 to urge Republicans to vote on the bill.

Chamber leaders again pointed to confidence at the end of May 21, informing Republicans that they would probably vote shortly after a meeting of the Chamber’s Rules Committee. However, this meeting had been dragged on for hours, shortly after May 21 until the Trump’s tax bill finally voted just after 2:30 on May 22. Legislators and journalists struggled to keep them awake, as Democratic legislators forced the votes to more than 500 modifications, largely symbolic, with the aim of addressing the process.

In the meantime, at some point during the night, conversations with GOP Holdouts went to the south.

The Freedom Caucus House held an improvised press conference directly after President Andy Harris, R-MD., Met with Johnson.

“Leadership will have to discover where to go from here,” Harris said. “I think there is a path we can see … I’m not sure you can do this week. I am pretty sure it could be done in ten days. But this corresponds to the leadership.”

Harris also said that Caucus freedom had achieved a “treatment” with the White House, which a white house official denied. “The White House presented HFC political options with which the administration can live, as long as they can obtain the votes,” said the official.

However, the modification of the manager, which finally came out just after 23 hours on May 21, relieved the concerns of at least several of the tax hawks.

He strengthened funding to the states that did not expand medicaid under the Affordable Care Law (ACA), included an additional reduction in taxes for weapons owners and accelerated the implementation of medicaid work requirements, among other measures.

In the meantime, a small group of these members of the Freedom Caucus had also met with a small group of conservative senators who assured them that they would seek cuts in deep expense in the bill when it landed in the upper chamber, said Norman.

“It was our hope that the Senate would return and even make the deeper cuts so that the deficit could be cut off,” Norman said.

The movements were not enough to relieve everyone’s concerns. About three hours after the release of the amendment, Freedom Caucus policy, Chip Roy, R-Texas, was the only Republican member of the Chamber’s Rules Committee to lose the key vote.

Fox News Digital asked through the text message why Roy lost his vote and told him that “he really read the bill …”

However, he approved an 8 to 4 vote, which asked the chamber leaders to warn their members to return for what would be a series of votes and debates throughout the night. Democratic leaders, acknowledged that they could completely set aside if Republicans had enough support next to them, they would move again to delay the procedures.

A whip warning sent to House Democrats, obtained by Fox News Digital, warned left -wing legislators that “Chamber Republicans are planning to end the debate and vote on the final step of HR 1 late tonight.”

The warning warned that the president of the Democratic Caucus of the house, Pete Aguilar, D-Calif., Would force a vote on the help of the House and that “additional procedural votes” was expected.

With the aim of keeping Republicans near the house flat for a night for a night, the speaker mounted a side room with appetizers and coffee so that the legislators were waiting for the procedures. In the room of the Chamber’s Appropriating Committee, in the room, more Republicans struck on cigars and other soft drinks. The tobacco smoke smell was diverted while more and more tearful legislators turned between the two rooms.

Fox News Digital even heard in various legislators who were wondering when expected to be the final vote, and he wondered if they had time to take a nap. In the meantime, Fox News Digital saw Harris and Roy walking along the opposite way from the Hullabaloo of the house floor, to the Longworth Office building, much quieter.

Both said that more conversations were leaving with the white house staff before the final vote.

“ The amendment of the manager approaches us a little, but we are still in discussions with the executive branch to see if we can achieve the goals we are looking for, which supports the President’s goals in fraud and abuse of the loss in Medicare and Medicaid, and, already know, ensuring that we have everything we can leave the law of inflation reduction, ” Harris said.

Roy said he expected Republicans to go beyond states that drastically expand their medicaid populations under the ACA. He also said that leaders suggested at the moment that another Medicaid reform could come from the White House.

“The President alluded to this afternoon … There are things in the executive space, executive actions, which we think could take care of some of the concerns we were having, again, is not what we want, but it does improve some of our concerns about the Medicaid expansion front,” Roy said.

Fox News Digital contacted the White House and the Office of the Speaker to comment.

When the final vote was time, it seemed that it was enough to put Roy on board. Harris, however, voted “present”.

It was also not made available to an interview for this story.

The final vote was seen only two republican defects: the representative Thomas Massie, R-KY., Long a Johnson, and the representative Warren Davidson, R-Ohio.

“Although I love a lot of the bill, promising that someone else will reduce spending in the future does not reduce spending. The deficits are important and this bill grows now. The only congress we can control is what we are. Consequently, I cannot support this great deficit plan. No,” Davidson published just before the voting began.

Two other Republicans, representatives David Schweiert, R-Ariz, and Andrew Garbarino, RN.Y., both fell asleep before the final vote, but both said they would have voted to pass the bill.

In the end, he advanced for a vote of 215-214, with the Republicans who broke out in cheerful when they realized that the victory was closed.

“ The media, Democrats have constantly dismissed any possibility that the Chamber Republicans could do it.

It is now expected that the bill will be considered by the Senate next week, when senators already indicate that they are preparing to make changes.

“I encourage our colleagues from the Senate to think about this as an effort of a team as we have, and modify it as little as possible, because it will make it easier for us to achieve it in the line and finish it and achieve it on the President’s counter on July quarter,” said Johnson.
