A House panel has approved a $95 billion budget plan that includes funding for the war in Iran and the SAVE Act. However, the proposal has exposed deep rifts within the Republican party.

Key disagreements revolve around the plan's substantial size, its significant cost, and various policy provisions. Many Republicans are also expressing concern about the timing of the vote, particularly with the midterm elections on the horizon.
