House Republicans published the legislation on Sunday, which increases the Pentagon editions by $ 150 billion and increased the entire defense budget for the 2025 financial year to more than 1 trillion US dollar if they are adopted.

In combination with the already approved defense budget of 886 billion US dollars, the additional dollars would bring defense spending to more than $ 1 trillion in the history of US history.
The Republicans push the funding thrust of 150 billion US dollars as part of the extensive package of the party full of Trump’s domestic priorities.

The House Armed Services Committee is intended to check the legislation and hold a vote on further development – a meeting as a markup – on Tuesday at 10 a.m. Edt. The language of the panel is then combined with different parts of other panels to create the party’s budget supply bill.
The chairman of the House Armed Services Committee Mike Rogers (R-Ala) described the defense part of the reconciliation law “A Historical Investment” to restore US military capabilities and to strengthen national defense.
“Our industrial bustle of defense has weakened. America’s deterrence does not strike and without a generation investment in our national defense, we will lose the ability to defeat our opponents,” said Rogers in a statement that accompanies the text of the law. “With this legislation, we have the opportunity to get back on track and restore our national security and global leadership.”
Roger Wicker, Chairman of the Committee of the Senate Armed Service, meanwhile said that the legislation is a “generational promotion” for military skills.
“This is about building the future of American defense, gaining peace through strength and ultimately deterring the war,” said Wicker.
The inclusion of the Boost -Boost boost of 150 billion US dollars brings one of the disagreements between the house and the Senate to bed in relation to the budget care law. The budget resolutions that the panels show to write its parts of the package instructed the committee of the house of the house of 100 billion US dollars to augment defense expenditure, while the Senate Committee was commissioned to 150 billion US dollars for defense.
In the end, the Senate won the speech of the panel, including the 150 billion dollars.

Smith said that the legislation contains 8.5 billion US dollars of expenses that would support programs for the quality of life for service members as well as the necessary modernization of weapons, but such investments should be taken into account by the normal process of normal supplement and the average.
The bill is paid by devastating cuts that only come from critical programs such as Medicaid, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) as well as student loans and subsidy programs at the Ministry of Education, “said Smith in a statement on Sunday. “And to insult the injury, this will be all part of a legislative package that delivers tax reductions of 4.5 trillion dollars for the opulent, but does not lower the costs for American families.”
The Golden Dome is the most striking line of expenditure in Bill, the dollars in an initiative, which has long been advertised by Trump on the campaign path and was set up by a management regulation of the White House at the beginning of this year. Of the almost $ 25 billion proposed for the program, around $ 15 billion for satellites, space sensors and interceptor technologies and start infrastructures would run.
