Josh Breechen (R-OK), Andrew Clyde (R-GA), Ralph Norman (R-SC), Chip Roy (R-TX), and Lloyd Smucker (R-PA) joined all Democrats in opposition to the reconciliation package, with Smucker changing his vote from yes to no in order to call for a future vote on the bill in committee.<\/strong> <\/em><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Breechen, Clyde, Norman, and Roy individually demanded several changes to the legislation, including more stringent Medicaid work requirements and earlier phase downs of\u00a0<em>Inflation Reduction Act\u00a0<\/em>(IRA) clean energy tax credits.\u00a0House Budget Committee Chair Jodey Arrington (R-TX) has subsequently announced the Budget Committee will reconvene on\u00a0<u>Sunday, May 18, at 10 p.m. ET<\/u>\u00a0to continue consideration of the bill.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Competing Demands?\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>House Republican leadership must satisfy several competing demands for final floor consideration of the reconciliation package. House leaders and House Freedom Caucus members have indicated they will continue to negotiate through the impasse over the coming days. However, various concessions to the conservative Budget Committee members may also jeopardize the support of several moderate House Republicans who have expressed concern over the impact of Medicaid cuts on health coverage and risks to ongoing clean energy investments from IRA changes. In addition, House Republican leaders are continuing to negotiate with several Members seeking an increase in the state and local tax (SALT) deduction cap. Any increase in the current SALT limitation will further increase the size of the tax and spending package, risking noncompliance with the House\u2019s reconciliation instructions and further concerns from conservatives over the bill\u2019s impact on the deficit.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What\u2019s the Timeline?<\/em><\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>House Republican leadership initially planned to convene the Budget Committee and Rules Committee on Friday and Monday, respectively, to provide for House floor consideration of the reconciliation package by their self-imposed Memorial Day deadline. House leadership is likely to attempt to resolve remaining issues with the package through the weekend to finalize committee consideration and meet their deadline.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#397389&#8243; divider_weight=&#8221;2px&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Squire Patton Boggs Logo &#038; About&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.5&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; link_option_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.squirepattonboggs.com\/en&#8221; link_option_url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; border_style_all=&#8221;none&#8221; global_module=&#8221;7402&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4506 \" src=\"https:\/\/familyenterpriseusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/SqPB-sponsors-page.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"189\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>About Squire Patton Boggs<br \/><\/strong>We combine sound legal counsel with a deep knowledge of our clients\u2019 businesses to resolve their legal challenges.
