SCOOP: Lindsey Graham amendment signals GOP budget breakthrough, sets stage for Trump agenda
Fox News
Senate Budget Chairman Lindsey Graham released the Senate's proposed changes to the House-passed reconciliation resolution, signaling movement on Trump's agenda in Congress.
The Senate amendment includes raising the debt ceiling in the key budget process by no more than $5 trillion. This has been a request of Trump since before he took office the second time. The date estimated for a potential default has been inching closer, presenting a looming problem for Republicans in the Senate.

Republicans who argued to include the debt ceiling in reconciliation said it would prevent Democrats from having leverage down the road, when a vote to raise it would need 60 votes, forcing them to lobby Democrats for support.
