Johnson says House GOP reconciliation 3.0 framework is in process, with Budget Committee markup expected this week

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said Tuesday that House Republican leaders are aiming to unveil their “Reconciliation 3.0” framework this week and advance it through committee, with a markup and vote in the House Budget Committee expected Thursday.

Johnson’s remarks came as the House GOP leadership continued working on a third budget reconciliation effort, which Republicans are pursuing under the reconciliation process for legislation tied to budget and deficit-related provisions. The House Budget Committee is typically the first stop for reconciliation measures after the House leadership sets the legislative agenda.

House GOP leaders characterized the package as still in process, and Johnson told reporters that “Reconciliation 3.0 is in process,” adding that “There will be a markup this week.” He said the framework is being prepared for committee consideration in the coming days.

A reconciliation package is generally structured to meet budget rules governing expedited consideration, with provisions drafted to fall within the scope of the applicable budget resolution. If House committees approve the measure, it would then proceed through additional House stages before moving to the Senate.

The House leadership’s timing indicates that the chamber is attempting to maintain momentum on GOP-only fiscal legislation during the current congressional calendar. Committee markup deadlines can be driven by the need to complete text, allow for amendments, and comply with internal House scheduling requirements.

While Tuesday’s comments described the expected committee schedule, an official legislative timeline and text for “Reconciliation 3.0” were not confirmed in the material reviewed here. does not, in the evidence available for this report, identify a specific “Reconciliation 3.0” bill corresponding to Johnson’s remarks by number.

Separate from the House committee schedule, the practical stakes of reconciliation efforts generally include how budget-related policies are assembled into one package and how quickly they can be considered compared with stand-alone legislation. For lawmakers and affected agencies, the process can also shape the pace of implementation if a measure is ultimately enacted.
