'There's no way': GOP lawmaker says spending bill 'actually got worse overnight'

Republicans are still at odds with many still balking over the proposed spending bill.

“I think actually we’re further away from a deal because that SALT cap increase, I think, upset a lot of conservatives,” Rep. Andy Harris (R-MD), the House Freedom Caucus chair, said in a Wednesday Newsmax interview.

“The conservatives are pushing for some balancing spending reductions,” Harris added.

House Speaker Mike Johnson has claimed he wants to call a vote Wednesday evening but it is not clear if it will actually happen.

According to Politico, Harris claims “that hard-liners stopped negotiating just before midnight, Wednesday.”

“This bill actually got worse overnight,” Harris said. “There is no way it passes today. … We may need a couple of weeks to iron everything out.”

Johnson has planned to have this bill passed by Memorial Day weekend.

When asked about the concerns of GOP hardliners like Harris, Johnson said he “continues to talk with the conservative holdouts.”
