(Worthy News) – The White House issued a veto threat Thursday on Democrats’ new bill to end the government shutdown, saying it shortchanged “the nation’s urgent border security needs.”
The White House also complained that the package of bills, which Democrats plan to force to the floor for votes later Thursday, the first night of the new Congress, includes billions of dollars in wasteful spending President Trump opposes.
That includes $12 billion in new money for foreign aid, $2 billion in funding Mr. Trump doesn’t want to see in the Environmental Protection Agency and $7.1 billion he says isn’t needed in the Housing and Urban Development Department. [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
