Democrats cram unrelated policies into defense bill
(Worthy News) – Democrats are loading an annual, must-pass bill that authorizes the Department of Defense’s spending and policy priorities for the next fiscal year with various measures unrelated to national defense, causing anger on Capitol Hill as Republicans accuse them of prioritizing a left-wing political agenda over the nation’s security.
The current debate over the National Defense Authorization Act, or NDAA, comes amid broader concerns that the Pentagon itself is too focused on priorities other than deterring and preparing for war.
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) has been pushing to include an amendment to the NDAA to address high credit card fees, working with Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) to frame the measure as a way to help military veterans. Source: Just the News
