House Speaker Mike Johnson and the White House are hoping to push a narrow reconciliation bill through the House by the end of next week that would include very few Republican priorities and focus mostly on defense and farm aid, multiple sources told NOTUS.<\/p>\n

The working plan is for the bill to have sections from four committees: the House Administration Committee, the House Armed Services Committee, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the House Agriculture Committee.<\/p>\n

The bill will include $70 billion for the war in Iran and defense, $20 billion for agriculture, mostly relief funds, and the SAVE America Act.<\/p>\n

While leadership knows that the SAVE America Act, President Donald Trump\u2019s priority voting bill, is likely to be stripped out in the Senate, including it in this package would help secure support from conservatives to pass it out of the House. That\u2019s especially true because the White House is not pushing for any cuts to avoid a fight with House moderates and pass it quickly. The White House wants Johnson to vote on the measure by the end of next week, a lofty goal in a chamber with such a razor-thin majority.<\/p>\n

The White House and Johnson\u2019s office did not immediately respond to request for comment on the plan.<\/p>\n

Nothing has been finalized yet and everything is still a work in progress, sources told NOTUS, but this is the working plan that the White House and select House Republicans have developed. The bill will also likely change as more members become involved and start voicing opinions about what should be in it.<\/p>\n

Another complication for the speaker is that he pledged to some members that reconciliation 3.0 would be a huge package with several Republican priorities that couldn\u2019t pass on their own.<\/p>\n
