Senate GOP clears way for Trump's economic agenda

EPA-EFE/MICHAEL REYNOLDS

Republicans in the United States Senate approved a budget resolution early Saturday that clears the way for a major bill combining tax cuts and spending reductions, central to President Donald Trump's policy plans. The 51-48 vote came after an overnight session and allows the GOP to push forward with legislation without Democratic support.

The resolution now heads to the House, where Speaker Mike Johnson faces a narrow margin for passage.
