From Washington: Debate Over The Budget Bill Gets SALT-y

As the Senate prepares to vote on the revised version of President
Trump’s "Big Beautiful Bill," tension has once again risen over its
contents, particularly over language pertaining to the SALT
deduction cap. While the House bill raised the cap to $40,000, the
Senate’s version lowers it back to $10,000. With the issue of SALT
being a sticking point for key blue-state Republicans, the Senate’s
tweak may put the bill’s final passage in jeopardy. Senior
Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins to discuss the
debate over SALT, as well as how members of Congress are reacting
to last weekend’s assassination of Minnesota lawmaker Melissa
Hortman. Then, Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) explains why raising
the SALT cap is so vital to his constituency. Plus, he weighs in on
the Israel-Iran conflict and Tuesday's New York City mayoral
primary. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
