Special Message

House passes sweeping $638 billion defense bill

The defense policy bill authorizes money for aircraft, weapons, ships, personnel and the war in Afghanistan in the fiscal year beginning Oct. 1 while blocking the Pentagon from closing domestic bases. The bill would also impose new punishments on members of the armed services found guilty of rape or sexual assault. Ignoring a White House veto threat, the Republican-controlled House voted 315-108 for the legislation.
