Washington – Congress leaders expect the White House to send them a package on Tuesday which would resume $ 9.4 billion in approved expenses, most of them for foreign aid.
The so-called cancellation package will include money which has been approved by the Congress that the Trump administration no longer wants to spend, according to a list of discussion points obtained by NBC News.
He would reduce the funding of the American agency for international development, NPR and PBS, according to discussion points, and aims to codify the cuts proposed by the Ministry of Effectiveness of the Government, the advisory entity which was led by the billionaire of Trump, Ally Elon Musk, until he leaves his post last week.
The package would require simple majority support in the Chamber and the Senate to pass, which means that the Republicans could bypass the Democrats.
The package is expected to contain $ 8.3 billion in foreign aid discounts, including a number of programs designed to support LGBTQ communities, depending on the discussion points. There are also discounts of education and transport programs, artificial health, funds for the World Health Organization, around $ 142 million in reduction in the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and nearly $ 9 million in reduction of the US President’s emergency plan for AIDS (PEPFAR) relief. And the package includes $ 1.1 billion in funding discounts for the public distribution company.
The $ 9.4 billion represent a drop in the bucket when set against the 6.8 dollars billions that the US government spends each year. And it comes as the Republicans of Congress seek to pass a Tripacean internal policy billThis would add more than 2 billions of dollars to debt. However, the expenses of the hawks see it as an important step towards defeating the authorized expenses, which is rare.
The cancellation plans generally fail because the congress, which controls the power of the handbag, generally rejects attempts by a president to refuse to allocate certain expenses that it has directed.
The head of the majority of the Senate, John Thune, RS.D., said on Monday that the wait is that the room would first consider the cancellation package and that the Senate would take it back “as quickly as we can.”
He said the Senate will have to juggle a cryptography regulatory invoice and Trump’s agenda legislation already underway. The congress would have 45 days to spend the package once it is submitted.
Senator Susan Collins, R-Maine, president of the credit committee, said that there were still questions about the process, telling journalists on Monday: “We are still talking about the parliamentarian about what can and cannot be done,” referring to the internal referee for the rules of the Senate.
“It’s extremely complex and the rules, because there has been no success in many years,” she said.
The House Freedom Caucus, a group of preservative hard-liners, puts pressure on a quick vote on the package.
“House Freedom Caucus strongly supports these critical cancellations, and we will support as many attractions that the White House can send us in the coming weeks and months,” said the group, led by representative Andy Harris, R-MD., In a statement. “While the marsh will inevitably try to slow down and kill these cuts, there is no excuse for a republican house to progress the first package of Doge attractions the same week, it is presented to the Congress, then send it quickly for the passage to the Republican Senate so that President Trump can sign it.”
