Senate Parliamentarian Puts Brakes On Ballroom Secret Service Funding – Full Article

A spokesperson for Judiciary Committee Republicans also told NBC News that “conversations and revisions are continuing, as they have been for days.”

It remains unclear whether Republicans can revise the provision in a way that fully satisfies the Senate parliamentarian’s concerns.

The budget resolution governing the legislation permits provisions only from the jurisdiction of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

If Senate officials again determine that the ballroom project falls under the authority of another committee, Republicans may ultimately have to remove the funding from the bill altogether, since they are unlikely to secure the 60 votes required to override the parliamentarian’s ruling, said the outlet.
