Top Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives plan to move forward this week on President Donald Trump's tax cuts, but their caucus is divided with some members concerned that there are insufficient spending cuts in the budget blueprint passed by the Senate.

There is broad agreement within the party about extending President Donald Trump's 2017 tax cuts, and funding other elements of Trump's agenda including new immigration enforcement and military spending. But a divide remains on how to pay for a measure that nonpartisan budget analysts say will add about $5.7 trillion to the nation's debt over the next decade.
