\n The House of Representatives on Wednesday took the first step toward funding President Donald Trump\u2019s war with Iran, as well as approving tens of billions in additional Pentagon money and aid for US farmers.\n <\/p>\n

\n The plan also includes money for state election grants aimed at promoting Trump\u2019s \u201cSAVE America Act.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n But with tiny margins and growing angst ahead of the midterms, even top Republicans don\u2019t know what happens next.\n <\/p>\n

\n The House formally adopted the blueprint for Trump\u2019s funding plan, known as a budget resolution, in a hard-fought vote on Wednesday. Speaker Mike Johnson muscled the plan through despite consternation from multiple sides of his conference: Some moderates still want more information about Pentagon spending, while fiscal hawks are angry that the package is set go on the nation\u2019s credit card. The vote was 216-214.\n <\/p>\n

\n And there are enormous details still missing: The House voted only on a blueprint for the plan, not the actual legislation, which will be extremely tricky for GOP leaders to write.\n <\/p>\n

\n The fate of the House\u2019s budget proposal is uncertain in the Senate. Johnson and his House Republicans need total cooperation from the Senate to get the money across the finish line without help from Democrats using a complex process known as \u201creconciliation.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n It\u2019s not yet clear if elements of the bill to promote the \u201cSAVE America Act\u201d would be approved by the Senate\u2019s nonpartisan rules referee known as the parliamentarian. The elections overhaul bill does not have the votes to overcome the Senate\u2019s 60-vote threshold \u2013 one reason why some Republicans had hoped to use the party-line process known as reconciliation to advance the measure as Trump continues to call for its passage.\n <\/p>\n

\n The problem is multi-fold in the Senate. GOP leaders are reluctant to use their special procedural powers to advance any legislation \u2013 let alone money for an unpopular war \u2013 so close to the November elections. That\u2019s because Democrats can force an unlimited number of politically painful amendment votes on the matter when a Senate budget comes to the floor through reconciliation, in what is known as a vote-a-rama.\n <\/p>\n

\n The Pentagon, meanwhile, has told lawmakers that their needs are growing urgent. Key GOP lawmakers have said the money is needed before the August recess, something that will almost certainly not happen, since the House is set to leave for that recess on Thursday.\n <\/p>\n
