GOP lawmakers want Mulvaney sidelined in budget talks
GOP lawmakers want Mulvaney sidelined in budget talks-thehill:
Senate Republicans, eager to avert a government shutdown or automatic spending
cuts, want acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney pushed to the
sidelines in budget negotiations with Democrats. GOP lawmakers would prefer Treasury Secretary
Steven Mnuchin take the lead in representing the White House, as they see him
being more amenable to a two-year spending deal that would also raise the debt
limit.
