Some of the White House conservative home allies say they interpret future votes on the president Donald Trump’s The $9.4 billion spending cuts down the proposal as a “test” of what Congress can achieve in terms of rewinding federal funds.
R-Texas Rep. Chip Roy will not speak for members of the Trump administration, but added, “I think it’s a test.”
“And I think this would show if Congress has the fortitude to do what they would always do,” Roy said. “Reduce minimum spending – $9 billion, NPR, PBS, what you’ve complained about for a long time, or are they going to go back to their bigoted politics?”
House GOP leaders announced laws on Friday attempting to codify Trump’s demands for spending cuts. I plan to receive a whole house vote within the next week.

“Rescue request It was sent to the council The Trump administration has taken the federal government in a new direction, and has an agency that actually commits waste, fraud, abuse and abuse, and holds Americans accountable,” R-La.
The law curbs funds that Congress has already been allocated to PBS, NPR and the United States Organization for International Development (USAID).
And while some Republican leaders and officials have already said they hope to turn around more rescue requests, some who spoke with Fox News Digital believe they are seeing how Congress handles this first package before the White House decides on the next step.
“You’re dead,” Rep. Ralph Norman, Rs.C. told Fox News Digital when asked if the Recissions package was a test. “I think it’s a test case. If you can’t get it… you’re not serious about cutting your budget.”
The retirement package must pass only a simple majority of the House and Senate. But the Republicans in both rooms have a dangerously slim majority that have little exile on them.
Republicans are also competing for the clock. The Awakening Package will be denied 45 days and will be considered funds recovered.

Rep. Lance Gooden of R-Texas did not directly say whether he viewed spending cuts as a test, but he dismissed potential concerns.
“This is a very low fruit and I don’t expect any issues,” Gooden told Fox News Digital.
“I’ve heard some comments in the media, but I don’t think they’re serious. If someone on the Republican side can claim PBS, there’s a lot of issues if they don’t vote strictly against illegal immigrants.”
Paul Winfrey, president and CEO of the Centre for Economic Policy and Innovation (EPIC), told Fox News Digital last week:
“If they can’t, it’s a signal for the president to use other tools at his own freedom to raise the dial,” said Winfree, who served as director of budget policy in the first Trump administration.
Both Roy and Norman suggested that the process known as “pocket retirement” could become at least one backup plan.
“Pocket Rescue” essentially means that the White House will introduce a spending reduction proposal 45 days before the end of the fiscal year on September 30th. In theory, you could run out of those funds and expire if Congress acted.
Vought told reporters after meeting with reporters Speaker microphone Johnson, R-LA.on Monday, he “want to see if it passes” but hoped it would be “opened” to further retirement packages.
“We send out a general retirement bill and use the process if it’s appropriate to get through the home and the Senate,” Vought said. “We also start to hear me talk a lot and use the end of the fiscal year to send similar rescues so that we can cut off funding deadlines. So there’s a lot of stuff we’re seeing.”
Still, some medium Republicans can wear themselves off by conservative spending cuts.

R-Neb. Rep. Don Bacon declined to comment on whether he supports the law before looking at details, but hinted at some concerns.
“It’s true, I’m giving you the answer right now until I read the details,” Bacon said.

“It bothers me because I have a great relationship with public radio and television in Nebraska. I think they were great working with them, so I hope they can’t come in.”
He also raised concerns about several specific USAID programs, including key investments to combat Ebola and HIV in Africa.
The law is expected to come before the House Rules Committee. The final gatekeeper is the final gatekeeper before most laws see the House-wide vote on Tuesday afternoon.
It’s separate from Trump’s “one big beautiful bill.” This is a broad law that drives the president’s tax, energy and immigration agenda through the budgetary settlement process.
