Democrats leave out debt ceiling hike from budget for $3.5T spending plan
| Senate Democrats on Monday unveiled a budget blueprint that paves the way for a massive spending plan they want to pass without GOP support later this year.
The budget resolution, which includes instructions for how to draft the $3.5 trillion bill, does not include an increase to the debt ceiling. Democrats can pass the budget resolution and the spending plan on their own if all 50 of their members stay unified, under a process known as reconciliation. |
