First on Fox: A republican of the Senate wants to see the parliamentarian of the dismissed Senate and plans to introduce a resolution which would oblige the post to be limited to term.

Fury broke out among the conservatives Thursday morning following the news that the parliamentarian of the Senate Elizabeth Macdonough ruled on several key and adjusted reforms in Medicaid in the version of the GOP Senate of the “Big and Beau Bill” of President Donald Trump did not adopt the rules of the Senate.

This means that the current provisions which do not comply with the Byrd rule must be stripped, but the Republicans can still rush to rewrite and submit politics to parliamentarian again.

However, Senator Roger Marshall, R-Kan., Cares from immediate measures taken against the parliamentarian.

“In 2001, the majority leader, Trent Lott, dismissed the Senate parliamentarian during reconciliation,” Marshall told Fox News Digital. “We are in 2025 during reconciliation, and we must again dismiss the Senate parliamentarian.”

He argued that, on the basis of the first reports, the decisions of the parliamentarian against a myriad of provisions in the bill could erase up to $ 500 billion in spending reductions, which could hinder the survival of the bill among budgetary falconse and miss the objective of hitting up to $ 2 billion in reduction expenses over the next decade.

The head of the majority of the Senate, John Thune, Rs.d., clearly indicated that he did not intend to cancel the parliamentarian. Fox News Digital contacted the Senate’s first Republican to comment.

Marshall, like the other Republicans in Congress, was particularly exasperated by the decisions of the parliamentarian who have emptied many changes from the Senate Republicans brought to the widely used Medicaid program that triggered conservatives.

Among the focused arrangements, there was the more severe repression of the GOP Senate against the rate of the MEDICAID supplier, or the amount that the State Medicaid programs pay to providers on behalf of the beneficiaries of Medicaid, who have proven a division policy among some of the conference.

Other provisions which were Nixées included the refusal of the financing of Medicaid states to have illegal immigrants on the service jets, preventing illegal immigrants from participating in Medicaid and the health insurance program (CHIP) and preventing funding from Medicaid and Chip from going to affirmative care.

The Republicans considered them as key changes in cost reduction, and their withdrawal has probably put its plan to put the gigantic bill on Trump’s desk by July 4.

The parliamentarian is chosen by the head of the majority of the Senate and serves without mandate limits in the role.

Marshall wants to put an end to this practice and plans to introduce a resolution Thursday which would only be authorized to serve only six years.

“The current parliamentarian has been in office since 2012, appointed by Harry Reid,” said Marshall. “It is not an elected position. Power tends to corrupt and absolute power absolutely corrupts. The limits of term to a person with this absolute power must be implemented.”
