House passes Export-Import Bank reauthorization spurned by White House and Senate

Published November 15, 2019 5:21pm ET



The House voted Friday to reauthorize the Export-Import Bank, the controversial agency that helps finance sales to other countries, that has been hamstrung by conservatives for most of the Trump era.

The lower chamber passed legislation, 235-184, reauthorizing the agency for 10 years, even as the White House and Senate Republicans said they would reject the measure because it lacked reforms. The bank’s current authorization expires on Nov. 21.
