Summary

When it comes to the "one big, beautiful bill" that President Trump is determined to pass, many lawmakers predicted that the real challenge would lie in the details, particularly regarding how the tax and spending components would be structured. That prediction proved true on Friday when House Republicans blocked the legislation in a 16-21 vote, despite President Trump's push for unity just hours before. As Republicans in Congress scramble to strike a deal before Memorial Day, FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins to break down the key roadblocks standing in the way of the bill’s passage. Then, Congressman Marlin Stutzman (R-IN) discusses his recent meeting with Syria's interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa and why he supports President Trump's vow to lift sanctions on the war-torn nation.
