Forbes: House Passes $9bn Claw Back Of Public Broadcasting And Foreign Aid Funds
The House approved a $9 billion rescissions package to cut previously approved foreign aid and public broadcasting funding, sending it to President Trump. The vote passed 216-213, mostly along party lines, with some GOP dissent. Trump praised the cuts as a win for fiscal responsibility.
The legislation faced delays due to a debate over the Epstein files, leading to a nonbinding resolution calling for the release of related documents. Critics argue this resolution lacks real impact and serves as a political distraction.
