US President Donald Trump has called on Republican lawmakers in Congress to immediately pass a major military reconciliation bill worth $350 billion.
Trump urged members of both the House of Representatives and the Senate to approve the legislation “without delay,” saying it is intended to secure funding for the armed forces and ongoing defense operations.
The push comes as political debate intensifies in Washington over defense spending priorities, alongside rising regional tensions following recent US military strikes against targets in Iran.
US Central Command (CENTCOM) recently said it had completed a new wave of air and naval strikes against Iranian air defense systems and surveillance infrastructure.
The White House has not released additional details on the timing of a vote or whether the bill has sufficient support to advance quickly through Congress.
