The House passed a $95 billion GOP-only budget proposal 216-214 to fund the Iran war and Trump priorities.
The package includes $60 billion for the Pentagon, $13 billion for national security, $12 billion for farmers affected by Trump’s tariffs, and $10 billion for voting law changes under the SAVE America Act.
Democrats opposed the spending, arguing the money should be used to lower costs for Americans at home.
House Speaker Mike Johnson used the budget reconciliation process to bypass Senate filibuster, but the proposal faces uncertainty in the Senate amid Republican skepticism.
The budget debate occurs as the U.S. war against Iran continues without congressional authorization, with 18 U.S. service members killed.
