Republican Megabill Provisions Rejected by Senate Parliamentarian | JQJO

Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough is reviewing the Republican megabill, rejecting provisions that don't meet the Byrd Rule's budgetary requirements. Dozens of provisions, mostly policy changes with minimal budgetary impact, have been rejected. Republicans aim to rewrite some rejected parts to comply with the rule, which governs the budget reconciliation process, allowing passage with a simple majority. A key decision on using a budget maneuver to exclude tax cut extension costs is pending.
