President JoeBiden girds for congressional gridlock as GOP takes over House
The most conservative House Republicans' political squeezing of McCarthy has jeopardized the longevity of the speaker's tenure. But it has also rendered the House an even more unreliable partner for the White House.
"Several Republican conservatives want to cut the defense budget, which is not popular even within the GOP caucus," West added, with critics including Rep. Tony Gonzales ."It will be very hard to move any piece of legislation." The overture to Republicans is part of the White House's legislative strategy of appealing to GOP lawmakers who have supported bipartisan bills during the first two years of Biden's presidency, from the $550 billion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act in 2021 to last month's $1.7 trillion omnibus government funding agreement.
"Kevin is fond of the Churchill quote, 'Americans can be counted on to do the right thing — after they have exhausted all other possibilities,'" Sundheim said."Hopefully that will be the case here."
