Congressional Republican leaders remain miles apart on tax and spending plans after agreeing to disagree on key elements. They’ve essentially kicked the toughest decisions down the road. The budget resolution that the House cleared last week includes instructions that differ widely from the Senate's version when it comes to spending cuts.
