Senate Majority Leader John Thune said early Wednesday that Republicans “will not stand idly by” as Democrats try to reverse accomplishments of President Trump’s first two years, including by raising taxes or restoring spending cuts to popular programs. In a post on X, Thune said Senate Republicans had built a record of safer streets and more money for Americans, and had prevented what he called the largest tax hike in American history.
