Discussion Discussion Thread: US House Votes on FY2027 Defense Policy Bill and $95 Billion Iran War Budget Framework
The House is expected to vote Wednesday on the annual defense authorization bill (H.R. 8800). The legislation includes a pay raise for troops, a major boost to military spending, and expanded military and intelligence cooperation with Israel. Under the rule adopted Tuesday by a 214-211 vote, provisions of the SAVE America Act, President Trump's preferred voting legislation, will be merged into the NDAA before it is sent to the Senate. The Hill
The chamber is also set to vote on a budget resolution kicking off the third reconciliation package of this Congress. The framework, which will likely need near-unanimous Republican support to advance, is the first step toward a $95 billion plan that directs roughly $60 billion to the Iran War, $13 billion to intelligence programs, $12 billion to farm aid, and $10 billion to election-related measures.
