The House budget panel's 2017 budget easily moved forward Wednesday, when all but two Republicans voted to send the bill to the floor, according to The Hill.
However, all Democrats on the House Budget Committee opposed the plan, and without their support the budget is likely doomed on the House Floor.
To ensure the bill goes through, the House GOP can only lose 28 votes, and the 40-member House Freedom Caucus has said it will oppose the plan. Reps. Dave Brat (R-Va.) and Marlin Stutzman (R-Ind.), both members of the Freedom Caucus, were the only two Republicans to oppose the bill in committee and other Freedom Caucus members said they will oppose the budget plan on the floor.
