President-elect Trump is seeking to bring Republicans in line, hosting meetings with House and Senate lawmakers this week to avoid any surprises that could stall his agenda.
This from thehill.com.
Trump met earlier this week with Senate Republicans in Washington and he is spending the weekend at Mar-a-Lago hosting several factions of the House GOP in an effort to quell any dissent over a host of complicated and onerous legislative matters.
The effort has Trump leaning into his undisputed grip on the party as he pushes toward ambitious, sweeping plans in his first few months in office. He has pledged:
– mass deportations,
– regulation cuts, and
– a legislative package that includes border security funding, tax policy, and investments in energy production.
