The legislative process has moved forward as the ‘big, beautiful bill’ successfully passed the Senate. Now, the House must navigate potential obstacles in its path to becoming law. Panelists Hugh Hewitt, Kimberley Strassel, and Robert Wolf from ‘Special Report’ examine the challenges the bill might face in the House, including political resistance and procedural complexities.
One of the primary concerns is the potential for partisan gridlock. With the House split along party lines, the bill may encounter significant opposition from members who view it as ideologically driven or economically detrimental. Additionally, the bill’s complexity could lead to prolonged debates, delaying its final approval.
Panelists also highlighted the importance of lobbying efforts and political alliances in securing the bill’s passage. They suggested that the success of the legislation will depend on the ability of proponents to build bipartisan support and overcome anticipated filibusters or amendments that could derail the process.
