Some House Republicans are frustrated with a lack of progress in the reconciliation process, but leadership says the conference is right on schedule.

House Republicans traded the bitter cold of Washington, DC, for President Trump’s ritzy resort near Miami this week to figure out how their tenuous majority can fulfill the grandiose promises they’ve made for a legislative package that will define the 119th Congress.

Fine decided to run in the district, even though he does not currently live there, after receiving an enthusiastic endorsement from President Donald Trump.

President Donald Trump-endorsed candidates Randy Fine and Jimmy Patronis handily won Republican primaries Tuesday in special elections for seats in districts vacated by former Florida Congressmen Mike Waltz and Matt Gaetz.

Trump-endorsed state Sen. Randy Fine easily won a special House primary Tuesday in northwest Florida, setting him up to fill a vacant, deep-red seat.
