图恩警告共和党人对快速推进的法案保持现实预期

国会今年以来，共和党一直将绕过参议院阻挠议事、强行推动立法的党派策略当作容纳其各项立法优先事项的“垃圾桶”。
如今，民主党拒绝为移民执法行动拨款，共和党正再次准备一项预算和解法案。而棘手之处在于，要让足够多的共和党议员达成共识，起草出既能通过、又能符合该程序严格规则的法案。
共和党去年曾利用这一程序推动特朗普总统的“宏伟法案”落地。这是一项耗时费力的立法手段，险些功亏一篑，除非参众两院就法案具体内容达成一致，否则仍可能失败。

特朗普本周正式支持再次使用和解程序，以此绕过民主党拒绝为移民海关执法局（ICE）和海关与边境保护局（CBP）拨款的立场。此时国会距离结束国土安全部（DHS）持续停摆的时间越来越近。
特朗普要求共和党在6月1日前将法案提交给他签署。
“我们将尽最快速度、集中精力为边境和移民海关执法局探员补充经费，激进左翼民主党人无法阻止我们，”特朗普在Truth Social平台上说道。
不过自“宏伟法案”通过以来的几个月里，共和党一直将和解程序作为解决诸多议题的载体，包括欺诈问题、负担能力问题、特朗普的关税权限、额外税收条款、医疗保健、伊朗战争拨款、农业追加支出以及选举诚信措施等。

参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩（南达科他州共和党）警告称，如果和解程序想要顺利推进——尤其是考虑到议员们启动并完成该程序的时间有限——共和党必须“保持现实预期”。
“我们制定这项计划的初衷是尽可能缩小法案范围、聚焦核心议题，这样才能最大限度提升推进速度，同时获得更多支持，”图恩说道。
“可能会有人试图添加其他条款，”他继续说道，“显然我们很多人都对某些议题感兴趣。但正如总统所指出的，我们需要尽快推进这项和解法案，它不太可能成为容纳所有其他议题的载体。”
参议院预算委员会主席林赛·格雷厄姆（南卡罗来纳州共和党）本周在南卡罗来纳州的一场活动中对选民表示，他正考虑推出两项新的和解法案，这可能缓解将共和党所有优先事项塞进一项庞大法案的压力。

“我们希望快速推进——为移民海关执法局、边境巡逻队拨款，尽可能提供多年期资金，”格雷厄姆说道，“接下来还会有另一项法案。我刚公布这个消息，秋季还会推出另一项法案，届时将着重解决欺诈问题。”
今年早些时候，众议院共和党在近期的政策务虚会上推动了所谓的“和解2.0”计划，准备在法案中加入多项条款，但这些条款可能耗费大量时间，且很难在参议院获得支持——根据严格的规则，不符合要求的提案可能直接被否决。
长期呼吁推出第二项和解法案的共和党研究委员会（RSC）也希望加入解决负担能力问题的提案。
“我们支持通过这一立法程序为军事战备和国土安全部提供经费，同时将总统的议程编入法律，为工薪家庭降低生活成本，”RSC指导委员会在给福克斯新闻数字频道的一份声明中说道。
一些共和党议员还推动将当前最新的政策争端纳入法案：《保护美国选民资格法案》（SAVE法案）。这部要求选民身份证和公民身份核验的法案，在民主党全员反对的情况下几乎没有在参议院通过的可能。
同时它也不太可能符合参议院和解程序的规则，该规则仅允许直接影响支出的条款。
“我认为我们必须对这项和解法案调低预期，”堪萨斯州共和党议员罗杰·马歇尔告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，“法案的核心必须是为移民海关执法局提供10年经费——我认为这是我们的首要任务。如果我们能顺带推进《保护美国选民资格法案》的部分内容当然很好，但议会官员不会允许我们通过该法案，这根本不可能。”
众议院共和党中一些最积极支持该法案的议员也承认，将《保护美国选民资格法案》纳入和解法案颇具挑战——很大程度上是因为他们更希望保持法案的纯粹性，直接推动其在参议院通过。
“听着，现在是时候让他们进行游说、发起阻挠议事了，让我们推动这件事落地，”南卡罗来纳州共和党议员拉尔夫·诺曼说道，“美国民众都在看——别只是零敲碎打地想通过一部分条款。”

GOP races to pass ICE, Border Patrol funding bill as priorities pile up, divisions emerge

Thune warns Republicans to keep expectations realistic on the fast-tracked bill

A party-line tactic to ram legislation through Congress and bypass the Senate filibuster has become a dumping ground for Republicans’ legislative priorities throughout the year.
Now, as Democrats refuse to fund immigration operations, Republicans are once again readying a budget reconciliation package. The hard part will be getting enough of the GOP on the same page to craft a bill that can pass and survive the strict rules underpinning the process.
Republicans used the same process to pass President Donald Trump “big, beautiful bill” last year. It’s a time-consuming, labor-intensive legislative maneuver that nearly blew up and could fail unless both the Senate and House align on what exactly they want to include.

Trump officially backed using reconciliation again this week as a way to skirt Democrats’ refusal to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP), as Congress inches closer to ending the ongoing Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown.
Trump demanded that Republicans get the bill on his desk by June 1.
“We are going to work as fast and as focused as possible to replenish funding for our Border and ICE agents, and the Radical Left Democrats won’t be able to stop us,” Trump said on Truth Social.
Still, Republicans have viewed reconciliation as a vehicle to tackle fraud, affordability, Trump’s tariff authorities, additional tax provisions, healthcare, funding for the Iran war, supplemental agriculture spending and election integrity measures in the months since passing the “big, beautiful bill.”

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., has warned that if reconciliation is going to work — especially given the limited timeframe lawmakers have to start and finish the process — Republicans need to “keep our expectations realistic.”
“Our theory of the case behind all this was to keep that thing as narrow and focused as possible, and that maximizes the speed at which we can do it and the support for it,” Thune said.
“There will probably be some attempts to add things,” he continued. “There are things out there that, obviously, many of us are interested in. But on a reconciliation vehicle like this — which we need to move with haste, as the president has pointed out — it’s probably not a likely magnet for all these other issues.”
Senate Budget Committee Chair Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., told voters at an event this week in South Carolina that he is eyeing two new reconciliation packages, which could ease concerns about cramming all the GOP’s priorities into one massive bill.

“We want to do it quick — ICE, Border Patrol — fund it as much as you can, multi-year,” Graham said. “Then there’s another one coming. I just made news. There’s another one coming in the fall, and that’s going to be about going after fraud.”
House Republicans spent their recent policy retreat earlier this year pushing a so-called “reconciliation 2.0,” gearing up to load the package with several provisions that could drain time and struggle to earn support in the Senate — where strict guidelines could kill proposals entirely if they don’t comply with the rules.
The Republican Study Committee (RSC), which has long called for a second reconciliation bill, also wants to add proposals addressing affordability concerns.
“We support pursuing funding for military readiness and Homeland Security through this legislative process, while simultaneously codifying the president’s agenda to deliver lower costs for working families,” the RSC Steering Committee said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
Some Republicans are also pushing to include the latest policy fight: the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act. The voter ID and citizenship verification legislation has no chance of passing the Senate given unified Democratic opposition.
It’s also unlikely to survive the Senate’s reconciliation rules, which allow only provisions that directly impact spending.
“I think we have to set our sights a little bit lower on this reconciliation bill,” Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., told Fox News Digital. “It’s got to be targeted to fund ICE for 10 years — I think that’s the number one thing for us. If we can nibble at the edges of the SAVE Act, that would be great, but the parliamentarian is not going to let us do the SAVE Act. That’s just an impossibility.”
Some of the loudest proponents of the bill in the House GOP acknowledge that adding the SAVE Act to reconciliation would be a challenge — largely because they would prefer to keep the bill intact and push it through the Senate.
“Look, it’s time for them to do a walk-and-talk and filibuster, and let’s make this thing happen,” Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., said. “The American people are watching — piecing it together just to try to get a piece.”
