The White House is going on an offensive push for its hefty $4.1 trillion election-year budget by attacking congressional Republicans for getting entangled in their own budget battles, The Hill reports.

After the administration unveiled its budget wish list Tuesday, Office of Management and Budget Director Shaun Donovan fired off a news release calling out strife within the House GOP conference — and warning that top GOP lawmakers who want deeper cuts would "blow up" last fall's $1.1 trillion spending deal.

"The question here isn't a fight between the administration and Republicans, it's a fight within the Republican Party," Donovan said Tuesday, The Hill reports. "We've done our part with this budget. It's going to be up to them to see whether they could live up to their promises to get back to regular order."

Obama and former Speaker John Boehner struck a two-year deal last fall setting the top-line figure for this year's appropriations process at $1.1 trillion and lifting spending caps known as sequestration.

But fiscal hawks led by the House Freedom Caucus are threatening to derail that agreement, pushing current Speaker Paul Ryan to drive a harder bargain, The Hill reports.

House Budget Committee Chairman Tom Price (R-Ga.) wouldn't say whether the GOP planned to abide by the spending limits, but tells The Hill: "We're working, and we'll get there."
