House Republicans are convening in sunny South Florida for their annual issues conference, where they are set to hear from Vice President JD Vance on plans for a massive conservative policy overhaul. The event, being held at President Donald Trump's golf course and resort in Doral, signifies the enduring influence of the former president on the GOP.
The focus of the discussion at the retreat is primarily on the budget reconciliation process, as Republicans aim to leverage their slim majorities in the House and Senate to pass significant policy changes. Reconciliation allows for the passage of sweeping reforms with a simple majority vote, provided they are related to budgetary and fiscal policy.
