Budget Bill Stalled: Republican Divisions Threaten Vote

The US Congress is grappling with a budget bill that is far from ready for a vote, despite Speaker Mike Johnson's push for a vote today. The bill has hit a snag due to internal disagreements among Republicans, particularly concerning proposed cuts to Medicaid. "They cannot agree on the changes to be made, especially towards Medicaid," says political commentator Millennial Mia in a recent video. These cuts, she warns, could disenfranchise millions of vulnerable Americans. The Republicans hold only a slim two-seat majority in the House, leaving little room for error. One Republican has already stated their opposition to the bill. The situation highlights the political complexities and potential consequences of the budget process. The outcome of today's vote remains uncertain, but the divisions within the Republican party are clear.
