House to vote on defense appropriations bill next week

Published



The House will vote next week on the fiscal 2017 defense appropriations bill after the funding bill failed to pass both chambers in the last Congress.

The spending bill “closely reflects” the version that passed the House by a 282-138 vote in August and is in line with the funding levels set by the fiscal 2017 National Defense Authorization Act, according to a release from the House Appropriations Committee.
