Incoming Senate Majority Leader had a closed-door meeting on Tuesday during which he laid out his plans to move quickly on several President-elect Trump’s agenda items. Senator Thune indicated that he will be pushing for two major partisan bills next term, including one within the first 30 days of the Trump administration.
Thune said the first of the two pieces of legislation, which would pass under a process known as budget reconciliation that can bypass the Senate filibuster, would focus on the border, defense, and energy.
The effects are being felt in the market too as a specific group of stocks appear prepared for another launch higher.
