0:20Now PlayingPublic broadcasting and a swath of foreign aid programs are on track to lose federal funding after the Senate voted to advance a $9.4 billion package of cuts on a 51 to 50 vote, with Vice President JD Vance breaking a tie.
The procedural vote is a strong sign the bill will pass the Senate after a marathon amendment session planned for Wednesday. That would be a victory for President Donald Trump, who overcame reluctance on the part of some moderates by making political threats and tweaking the bill to allay some objections.
Passage of the measure would also add momentum to Department of Government Efficiency cost cutting effort started by former Trump ally Elon Musk. The White House plans a series of fast-track rescissions bills to claw back DOGE-identified funds, using a provision of budget law to bypass the Senate filibuster.
