Thune Plows Ahead with Big Beautiful Deadline Despite Question Marks |
by Suzanne Bowdey |
Every couple of years, all eyes are suddenly trained on one of Congress's most under-the-radar jobs: the Senate parliamentarian.

The first-ever woman to hold the job, MacDonough has played the referee through four administrations and an array of different Senate leaders. It's up to her to settle the bitter disputes over which parts of the Big Beautiful Bill are relevant under the rules and which aren't. In other words, she's the most important person to Donald Trump's agenda that most people have never heard of. |
