Governor Mike Braun led a group of 22 GOP Governors in a letter to President Trump supporting his budget framework, which was passed by the Senate on Saturday and will be considered by the House later this week.

In the letter, Governor Braun thanks President Trump for supporting this budget framework, which, overall sets up Republicans to deliver on the GOP’s biggest priorities in a forthcoming reconciliation bill: securing the border, unleashing American energy, fighting wasteful spending, making the tax cuts of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent, and several more priorities.

“We are on your side in supporting the Senate amendment to the House budget resolution because we know that failure cannot be an option,” Governor Braun and his 21 colleagues wrote, calling the budget resolution “a preliminary step to unlocking a reconciliation bill that delivers on all of the promises every Republican made to the American people.”

Together with Governor Mike Braun, the letter was also signed by the Governors of AL, AK, AR, GA, ID, IA, LA, MS, MO, MT, NE, ND, OK, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, WV, and WY.
