House passes Trump’s $9.4 billion cuts to foreign aid, PBS and NPR

However, some moderate Republicans had concerns about the impact of legislation on critical disease prevention research in Africa.

Such measures only need a simple majority in the House of Representatives and the Senate to pass. But this is not easy with the delicate majority of the Republicans in both rooms.

If it is approved, Republican leaders hope that the bill will be the first among several packages to rescue the codification of spending discounts set by the government efficiency management at Elon Musk (DOGE).
