WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican senators pushed a $340 billion budget framework to passage early Friday, chugging through an all-night session and Democratic opposition in a step toward unleashing money the Trump administration says it needs for mass deportations and border security that top their agenda.

Senators are launching a budget “vote-a-rama” in a crucial, if dreaded, step toward President Donald Trump's agenda

The 52-48 overnight vote puts pressure on the GOP-controlled House, which plans to take up its own competing budget resolution next week.

The move came even though the president has endorsed the House GOP's one-bill approach while Senate Republicans want to separate his priorities into two bills.
