Senators Tim Scott, R-S.C., Mike Lee, R-Utah, Ron Johnson, R-Wis., and Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., are hosting a news conference on Wednesday. Republicans are planning a bill that would help implement Trump's tax policies, lower the federal deficit and enact conservative priorities in 2025.

Lee slammed Congress for the lack of restoring executive power to the president during an interview on Fox News' “The Ingraham Angle.” He believes Congress should repeal the Impoundment Control Act, which blocks the president from cutting spending.
