GOP senators have raised concerns about the deficit impact of the emerging package, as well as the cuts to Medicaid and clean energy funding.

As House Republicans scramble to corral the votes to pass a massive bill for Donald Trump’s agenda, their Senate counterparts are making clear the emerging package won’t fly as written when it reaches them.

Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., was categorical that the product coming out of various House committees cannot pass the Senate as it currently stands.

It wouldn’t surprise House members to learn that their Senate colleagues want to put their own fingerprints on the final multitrillion-dollar package. But Republican senators have already begun to identify a variety of provisions in the House measure that they’re targeting for revisions — from Medicaid concerns to clean energy funding to spectrum policy and overall red ink.
