But a planned announcement was quickly nixed amid a rebellion from congressional Republicans who balked at the White House’s ideas and process, and it is unclear when - or whether - President Donald Trump will endorse a specific legislative path. Several Senate Republicans have offered their own proposals, though it is not clear whether they can achieve sufficient support to pass the chamber.
