Trump Calls Congress to Prioritise 'Reconciliation 3.0' with $350 Bln Defence Fund
Trump said the military has never been stronger and urged leaders to move the bill out of committee when Congress returns.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump urged Congressional leaders to prioritize 'Reconciliation 3.0,' a bill seeking $350 billion in defense funding alongside the proposed 'Save America Act.'
- Trump framed the spending as vital to maintaining military power, citing historic recruitment records set ahead of schedule during the Celebration of 250 Years of American Independence.
- The president declared the legislation must be the 'Number One Priority,' asserting that full funding for the Defence Department will ensure the United States 'stays FREE for generations to come.'
- Skepticism remains on Capitol Hill, where Senator Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, questioned if 50 votes exist for passage, while House Budget Committee members demanded full yearly accounting.
- As soon as Congress returns, leaders must advance the bill out of the Budget Committee, though House Budget Chair Jodey Arrington claimed fraud-tackling initiatives could cover the $350 billion cost.
