House Republicans aligned with President-elect Donald Trump are advocating for him to have increased authority over Congress' annual government spending process in the upcoming year. Rep. Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., is set to introduce a bill that would repeal a measure requiring the president to allocate the full amount of money approved by Congress annually.
Clyde plans to present the bill in the next Congress, where Republicans will hold the majority in the House, Senate, and White House. The issue has already garnered attention within Trump's inner circle, with key figures like Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk expressing support during recent discussions on Capitol Hill.
