The U.S. House of Representatives adopts a Republican-only $95 billion budget proposal aimed at funding the Iran war and other White House priorities associated with President Donald Trump. According to multiple reports, Speaker Mike Johnson is pushing to advance the measure over Democratic objections and despite resistance from some within the Republican caucus. The action is described as a long-shot effort because the proposal is unlikely to win broader support needed to move forward without cooperation from Democrats or GOP members who oppose it.
The House vote is framed as part of a final push ahead of upcoming midterm elections. The proposal includes funding linked to U.S. involvement in an Iran-related conflict, along with additional resources intended to align with White House priorities. All accounts characterize the approach as party-line, with Republicans using the measure as a vehicle to address funding needs they say are urgent. The reports do not indicate that the proposal has been adopted by the Senate or signed into law; they focus on the House’s adoption and the political hurdles expected for further progress.
