The draft law, which is called the “Rescue Operations Pack”, was approved by the House of Representatives at the end of the night 216 to 213 votes after an intense discussion between Republicans and Democrats. Only two Republicans, actors. Brian Fitzpatrick, RBA, Mike Turner, Rao, voted in the opposition.

“Is he answering all problems, number 9 billion dollars, and I would like to say it is a good start,” said Steve Scalez, majority leader in the House of Representatives.

Upon signing by Trump, he will prevent 8 billion dollars from funding for the United States Agency for International Development (the United States Agency for International Development) and $ 1 billion for the Foundation for the public broadcasting of the rest of the fiscal year. The dollars were allocated by Congress throughout the 2025 fiscal year.

Republicans celebrated it as a victory to reduce the flow of taxpayers in the United States to what they called “wake” initiatives abroad, while Democrats accused the right to overcome critical foreign aid.

The Bible packages are a way for the president to obtain inputs in the annual credits of Congress. The White House sends a proposal to prevent some twisted boxes in Congress, which is in front of lawmakers 45 days to reach the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Republicans have also been able to form the Democrats so far, as the rescue operation reduced the Senate threshold from 60 votes to 51 votes.

The last time a rescue package was signed in the law was in 1999.

The draft law began with the hearing of the House of Representatives Bases Committee at 6 pm on Thursday evening.

Democrats have tried several times throughout the operation to the repercussions of the ongoing front on the Jeffrey Ibstein case, whether in the House of Representatives Bases Committee or in the Chamber Hall during the discussion on the draft law.

Multiple calls were made to vote to force the so -called “Epstein” files.

“If every fans vote to prevent our attempt to issue records, they tell the victims of Epstein, then you do not care about our political comfort. The disgust should arouse each of us.”

The right -wing Republican right -wing numbers require accountability, while Trump called his base to move forward after the Ministry of Justice indicated the closure of the case.

Initial plans were subjected to the start of the bill earlier in the day, as the Republicans in the committee are concerned about its position in a difficult position with the potential voices of Epsin.

In the end, the Midfielder resulted in the Parliament’s rules committee to advance a separate, non -binding procedure that deals with Epstein’s transparency, on a parallel path to the rescue law.

“All reliable evidence must come out. I was very clear with members of the House of Representatives Bases Committee. Republicans have taken the criticisms received because they voted to stop the politicization of the Democrats for this, and they are trying to adhere to their job and transfer their procedural rules to the ground so that they could do our work and complete the rescue operations of the American person,” Johnson told those associated earlier in the negotiations.

However, Democrats pressed Epsin several times in the home of the house. McGOVERN briefly led the chant “File launch” when the debate was closed.

The Republicans, in turn, accused the Democrats of hypocrisy.

“It is interesting how they talk about Jeffrey Epstein, because for four years, Mr. President Joe Biden had these files, not a single democratic hear tonight tried to issue these files.”

The House of Representatives initially voted to pay a $ 9.4 billion rescue package, but it was somewhat cut in the Senate after some members of the Senate had concerns about reducing the financing of HIV/AIDS research in Africa.

Trump is expected to sign the bill on Friday.
