WASHINGTON — Republicans are already hitting some snags as they begin the work of crafting a bill for President Donald Trump’s sweeping domestic policy agenda. And they haven’t even made some of their hardest decisions yet.

Rep. Sam Graves, R-Mo., the chair of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, on Wednesday was forced at the eleventh hour to yank a provision out of his panel’s portion of the package that would have created a new $20 annual fee on nearly all passenger vehicles after conservatives revolted.

Separately, on the Judiciary Committee, a push by Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., to codify Trump’s proposal of a “gold card” visa for wealthy foreigners was rejected by conservatives opposed to expanding visa programs.

And on the Education and Workforce Committee, Chairman Tim Walberg, R-Mich., on Tuesday pushed through an overhaul of student loan programs that would cut $351 billion in federal spending, drawing criticisms from Democrats. The most contentious part of that overhaul, Walberg said, is a “risk-sharing” provision that would make colleges, universities and trade schools partially responsible for unpaid student loan balances.
