It's kind of a back and forth right now between leaders trying to address affordability and what the Trump administration and these hardliner Republicans are pushing for.
A lot of especially Republicans who are facing some tough elections in November, they want to keep the conversations focused on affordability.
There's a lot on the agenda to figure out.
And I think in some regards, Trump's repeated push for the Save America Act is throwing a wrench in some of these discussions, right?
This is something the House has passed two versions of this already, and it has stalled so far in the Senate.
But again, this is going to be something that gets in the way of some of the discussions that they were hoping to have.
We're seeing rising energy prices, even just outside of the resort that they're all gathered at.
You know, gas prices were up $3.59 a gallon, I believe.
So that is kind of showing the dynamics at play right there, where they have rising energy costs that they need to address.
Many Republicans are saying this is just a short-term thing and are really focused on these long-term affordability issues.
But it doesn't help that the war in Iran is causing these kind of energy prices.
