Senator Eric Schmitt

But some of them could be passed into law with only 51 votes in the Senate, especially through what's known as a rescissions package. Under the Budget Act, the White House, the president is allowed to propose to Congress that they rescind certain discretionary funds. And a lot of that is where the doge cuts would come through. They can send that over once the White House has sent it over.

They can send that over once the White House has sent it over.

They can be considered for an expedited up or down vote in both houses, including a simple majority vote in the Senate. So not everything through Doge could be done through reconciliation, but I think when most people talk about the Doge cuts, most Americans probably are not contemplating that distinction between discretionary and non-discretionary, but they do want to see aggressive action.

That's what they're calling for here.

That's what they're calling for here.

I suspect it'll take place over the next four weeks. During the month of June, you're going to see aggressive action within the Senate. I think you'll see finished product coming out of the Senate, most likely by the end of June. And then what happens from there will be up to the House of Representatives. But I think it'll be that much closer to passing into law.

And I look forward to being part of that effort and look forward to getting this thing passed. Look, nobody, not one person wants to see these Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions lapse, resulting in this $4 trillion tax bomb exploding. And I intend to be part of the solution and get this thing done.

Yeah. So border security is a big deal. We've got to make sure that we have the tools to deal with that. We've had more illegal immigration than we've ever seen over the last four years. It's just been absolute uncontrolled chaos. which was sadly part of a design of the president's auto pen administration.

Um, we, we have also got, uh, uh, provisions making sure the tax cuts and jobs act, uh, um, tax cuts don't expire. Um, we've got no tax on tips. That's a very good, very popular provision. And, uh, we, we do bring about a lot of the reforms that I mentioned through, uh, provisions of my America first act were adopted by the house.

that get rid of a lot of the federal benefits from going to illegal aliens. And so those are all good things. We're going to build on those. We're going to make things better in the Senate. We'll get this thing passed.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Yeah, Charlie, first of all, are you tired of winning? I mean, my gosh, that clip that's going viral there with you, President Trump, a big win last night. And just congratulations to him as well as Speaker Mike Johnson. President Trump is the best closer in the country. So Mike Johnson gave us the best bill that he could get passed over there. Think of the Senate as like a saucer.
