Senate begins 'vote-a-rama' to advance $340 billion budget for Trump's agenda

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : But on Wednesday, Trump gave a full-throated endorsement to the House's strategy, taking to Truth Social to say he wanted "ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL" and urging the Senate to pump the brakes on their two-bill reconciliation push.
57% : Nothing would please me more than Speaker [Mike] Johnson being able to put together the bill that President Trump wants.
40% : Between this budget and any future party-line efforts by Republicans, they plan to offer amendments that would prohibit cuts to programs like Medicaid and reject tax breaks for high-income earners, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., told NBC News.
33% : In the House, conservatives are demanding steep spending cuts while more moderate Republicans are getting skittish due to potential cuts to Medicaid.
21% : And it calls for expanding the military by $150 billion, even as Trump and Elon Musk say they want to cut costs at the Pentagon.
17% : Trump has endorsed the House version, but GOP senators have indicated that their version could be a fallback plan if the House blueprint fails.
