President Donald Trump is ramping up a pressure campaign on House Freedom Caucus members as he tries to get his “Big Beautiful Bill” across the finish line ahead of his July 4 deadline.
A White House official, granted anonymity to speak candidly about strategy, confirmed that the president is meeting with House Freedom Caucus members and other GOP lawmakers on Wednesday.
“He’s been working the phones pretty consistently over the last several days, and members have been calling him as well,” the official said. “He’s going to get it over the finish line.”
Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) was among a handful of Republicans spotted arriving at the White House Wednesday morning.
