Summary

75% Informative

Republicans pledge to withhold support for President-elect Trump 's ambitious agenda if the state and local tax ( SALT ) deduction cap is not raised.

Republicans are plotting to push Trump ’s tax, energy and border priorities through a special party-line “reconciliation” process that bypasses the need to get Democratic buy-in but can only be used once or twice in a year .

In the razor-thin House GOP majority, opposition from a handful of SALT Caucus members could hold up the major bill.

SALT Republicans are poised to hear good news from Trump on their top priority.

Increasing the cap to just $15,000 for individuals and $ 30,000 to joint filers could increase the deficit by as much as $450 billion .

Republicans are already aiming for $2.5 trillion in cuts to appease fiscal hawks who balked at raising the debt limit.
