Live updates: House Republicans adopts budget after Trump whips GOP holdouts

House Republican leadership is aiming to muscle through a budget resolution Tuesday that would serve as a blueprint to pass large swaths of President Trump's agenda.
The chamber advanced the GOP budget resolution on Tuesday afternoon, teeing up for a final vote despite internal opposition of the measure.
Opposition has emerged from all sides of the conference, and Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and his leadership team are scrambling to shore up support. Johnson can afford only one GOP defection, assuming full attendance on both sides.
Senate Republicans have already adopted their own, slimmed-down version of the resolution, but Trump has expressed a preference for the House's plan. The president on Tuesday began reaching out to weary lawmakers in an effort to garner support for the lower chamber's plan
The final vote is expected Tuesday evening.
Also on Tuesday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt shared that tech billionaire Elon Musk will join President Trump alongside his Cabinet for its first meeting on Wednesday.
She also announced that the White House Correspondents' Association will no longer oversee the White House press pool amid the executive branch's tense relationship with the media.
