White House budget chief Russ Vought said the administration is likely to send a second rescissions request to Capitol Hill, following the Senate’s decision to retain a $9 billion package of spending cuts. The prospective proposal would again ask lawmakers to cancel previously approved funds, reviving a budgetary tool that Vought called a "historic" return to fiscal discipline. Vought told reporters the new submission is being shaped as the Office of Management and Budget combs through programs for savings, including what he described as cost overruns on a Federal Reserve building project that he blamed on years of mismanagement. The director also argued that the annual appropriations process "has to be less bipartisan," contending that voters do not prioritize cross-party deals. His comments set the stage for sharper partisan lines as Congress works on spending bills ahead of the new fiscal year.
