Trump's new tax bill did not pass the budget committee on Friday.

Trump pressured, "It must pass," and the Speaker of the House requested the budget committee to "work overtime on Sunday."

A White House representative was present for oversight + the Speaker of the House conducted on-site lobbying. The budget committee passed the proposal near midnight on Sunday (the original five votes against were "persuaded" into four abstentions and one vote in favor).

The next step is a full House vote. The Speaker of the House decided that if it does not pass before Memorial Day federal holiday on May 26, there will be no vacation.

Determined to succeed. It turns out that it can be done this way; once is not enough, do it again and again until it passes. Is this democracy or "mandatory democracy" under power!
