House GOP Sets Aggressive Summer Schedule for Spending Bills

Republican leaders aim to pass all 12 appropriations bills before August recess to avoid last year's delays.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise announced the schedule during a closed-door meeting.
The first spending bill, focusing on Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, is set for early June.
Intraparty tensions over controversial policies could hinder the process.
The House GOP's slim majority may make passing all bills challenging.
Senate and White House actions could delay final approval until after the November election.
