The US Senate has approved its version of the annual law on defense policy

The document, which was approved by 77 votes for and 20 “against”, provides for financing for $ 924.7 billion in the 2026 financial year.

The senators spent hours in the meeting room on Thursday evening, considering a long list of amendments before moving to the final adoption.

According to CNN, one of the adopted amendments will cancel the permission to use military force in Iraq, the West, which was also included in the version of the House of Representatives, which makes it likely to get to the final text.

The House of Representatives approved its version of the package, which contained some controversial policies supported by the Republicans, in September only 17 votes of Democrats. The Senate version contains fewer political hot spots and has supported more than 20 Democrats.

Now that the Senate has approved his bill, the House of Representatives and the Senate will turn to the Conciliation Committee to resolve the differences between the two packages. This final version must be approved by both wards by the end of the year.
