The House and Senate are moving closer to agreeing that the debt ceiling should be included in a single bill, GOP leaders say.

The two chambers are divided on how to get President Trump 's ambitious legislative agenda passed.

Republicans are aiming to use a process called budget reconciliation, which will let them move forward with only GOP votes but requires near unanimity among Republicans .

Republicans hope to use the current policy baseline to make the tax cuts permanent.

The current tax rates could be extended into the future indefinitely without adding to the deficit.

The 2017 tax cuts are set to expire at the end of the year , and under the current scoring system, they would cost roughly $4.5 trillion over the next decade .
