Watch live: House progressives give remarks on Trump’s ‘big, beautiful’ legislative agenda

The House Progressive Caucus is set to give remarks Wednesday morning as Republicans push forward with their tax and spending megabill — which includes much of President Trump’s legislative priorities.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) remained optimistic that the GOP can advance the bill by Memorial Day — now less than a week away.

Members of the Progressive Caucus, led by chair Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas), have been outspoken critics of the “big, beautiful” reconciliation package which includes steep cuts to Medicaid and other tax breaks. They have also blasted the budget plan as catering to the wealthy and ignoring the working class.

The press conference is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. EDT.
