The Daily Quote
“House and Senate negotiators are hustling to produce a final budget, but lingering problems with defense funding and the logistical headaches of assembling a spending blueprint have Republicans doubting they can get a final deal passed this week. House Budget Chairman Tom Price (R-Ga.) and his Senate counterpart, Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.), had hoped to have a final budget hammered out by an April 15 deadline, just three days after lawmakers return from their two-week recess. That timetable, it turns out, was too ambitious… Both chambers passed GOP budgets that balance in a decade by cutting more than $5 trillion without raising taxes. They both also repeal Obamacare… [S]everal other provisions are still being worked out. ‘The easy part is lining up the numbers,’ said a Senate GOP aide. ‘The hard part is trying to drill down on how to handle all the extraneous stuff that people attached to the budget.’” - Politico, 4/10/2015
