House GOP Pushes $95B Spending Package | Miami News
from Miami News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
House Republicans are racing to pass a $95 billion spending package before the election, funding the Iran war, agriculture, and voter ID laws — with $60 billion earmarked for troops in Iran. The bill, approved 20-14 on party lines, marks the third time GOP leaders have used a special legislative shortcut, echoing last year’s tax cuts and Homeland Security funding. Speaker Mike Johnson is rallying the party, even meeting with Trump, but faces pushback: some Republicans call it too costly, others say it’s not enough. Democrats fiercely oppose it, arguing it ignores affordability and blame the Iran war for rising grocery and gas prices. They’re pushing amendments to restore healthcare and food aid, and redirect funds from immigration enforcement. The Senate remains skeptical, and while the House debates next week, final votes may not come until fall — leaving the fate of this massive package uncertain.
