President Trump urged Senate Republicans on Sunday to overrule the chamber's parliamentarian in order to pass key parts of his sweeping domestic policy bill.
In a Sunday post on Truth Social, the president backed a call from Rep. Greg Steube (R-Ohio) and other GOP hardliners to ignore rulings from Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough.
"Great Congressman Greg Steube is 100% correct. An unelected Senate Staffer (Parliamentarian), should not be allowed to hurt the Republicans Bill. Wants many fantastic things out. NO! DJT," Trump wrote.
The parliamentarian is the nonpartisan Senate official responsible for determining whether parts of laws meant to be passed through budget reconciliation comply with the rules for that process.
Budget reconciliation bills can pass the Senate with simple majorities, thereby averting the filibuster. But those provisions must follow specific instructions passed through a budget resolution and not expand the deficit past the window laid out in the bill.
