More drama is unfolding on Capitol Hill this evening as House Republicans struggle to pass a budget that would advance President Trump's agenda.

For more on this, I'm joined by our Capitol Hill correspondent, Lisa Desjardin.

So, Lisa, bring us up to speed on the latest. Where do things stand right now?

This is a critical test for Speaker Johnson and the Trump agenda to try and get that agenda started.

So let's take a look at the room across the hall from me now, the House chamber.

The voting series has begun where this test on this budget framework will happen in coming minutes.

Now, this is something that Republicans are hoping to pass tonight, but the truth is this is close.

They don't know if they have the votes. And this morning, Speaker Johnson himself hedged. So we're planning to take up our

budget resolution as early as today, which is a major step, as you know, to unlock the process

in delivering President Trump's America First legislative agenda. We're very, very close, and we're excited about

the progress, and I'm very positive, and I'm absolutely convinced we're going to get this done.

Here's what's in it, $4.5 trillion in tax cuts, about $1.5 to $2 trillion in spending cuts.

Now, independent, the committee for responsible federal budget found this would add $3 trillion to the debt, including interest payments.

Now, that's a problem for some on the right who said that's a minimum of red ink.

Under the rosiest assumptions, why would I vote for that?

So are you solidly a no?

Yeah, they convinced me. I was at lean no until this meeting.

And then this no, this is a no. Why? Why? Why? They're talking points.

Speaker Johnson can't lose more than one vote. That's also a problem on the left from those who are worried about Medicaid cuts. Anna? Lisa, explain that a bit more because this is a blueprint here, right?

There's no specific cuts listed.

So where do the concerns over Medicaid come from?

That's right.
