In the latest developments within the Republican Party, a significant focus has been on the advancement of President Donald Trump's domestic policy bill through the House of Representatives. Despite initial setbacks, the bill has made progress after intense negotiations over the weekend.

The bill, which is a cornerstone of Trump's domestic policy agenda, faced resistance from conservative Republicans who felt it did not include sufficient spending cuts. On Friday, a group of four conservative lawmakers—Reps. Chip Roy of Texas, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, Josh Brecheen of Oklahoma, and Andrew Clyde of Georgia—voted against the bill, stalling its passage. However, in a subsequent vote on Sunday, these lawmakers chose to vote present instead of against, allowing the bill to advance with a narrow margin of 17 in favor and 16 opposed.

House Speaker Mike Johnson has been instrumental in these negotiations, working to appease the conservative faction with minor modifications to the legislation. These modifications include stricter Medicaid work requirements and further restrictions on Medicaid funding, which were key demands from the hard-line conservatives. Johnson expressed optimism about the progress, calling the Sunday outcome "a big win."

The bill itself includes several key provisions, such as extending tax cuts from Trump's first term, temporarily ending taxes on tips and overtime, increasing spending on the military and border security, and offsetting these costs partly through cuts to Medicaid, food stamps, and clean energy subsidies. Republican leadership is keen to push this megabill through the Rules Committee and onto the House floor before the Memorial Day recess.

In addition to these legislative efforts, Donald Trump's influence within the Republican Party remains strong. Recently, Trump's endorsement power was highlighted in Ohio, where the state Republican Party endorsed Vivek Ramaswamy for the 2026 gubernatorial primary nearly a year in advance. This move underscores Trump's significant control over the Ohio Republican Party, a state where he has won the presidency in three consecutive elections. Trump's endorsements have also been crucial in other Ohio races, such as his support for J.D. Vance and Bernie Moreno in their successful Senate bids.

These events collectively illustrate the ongoing dynamics within the Republican Party, with Trump's policies and endorsements continuing to shape the party's direction and legislative agenda.
