Summary
Senate Republicans are re-evaluating their relationship with House Republicans as they prepare for another test of unity across chambers. Recent dysfunction, miscommunications, and wasted time have marked the last few months of Republican control of Congress. Republicans agree that something needs to change, particularly as they work to fund immigration operations for the next few years. Senate Republicans are calling for better communication and coordination with the House to achieve their goals.
Our Reading
As expected, the matter has reached another stage.
Senate Republicans are taking stock of their relationship with House Republicans. They’re calling for better communication and coordination to achieve their goals. Sen. Katie Britt says, “We need to get in a room and figure out what’s our plan.” Sen. Roger Marshall notes that House Speaker Mike Johnson has a thin majority to work with. Sen. James Lankford says, “The House isn’t our enemy. We gotta be able to resolve all the issues on a piece of legislation.” The issue of communication is one that was largely handled by DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has not been quick to criticize Johnson or House Republicans publicly.
