The US House of Representatives approves a $95 billion budget framework that assigns money across multiple areas, including military, domestic programmes and election-related activities. According to coverage of the House action, the plan allocates about $73 billion to military agencies, with the majority of that defence funding intended for the Pentagon to support efforts linked to the war against Iran. Other parts of the framework include roughly $12 billion for farmers and about $10 billion for election-related programmes. The reports describe the measure as a budget plan approved by the House, though they do not provide details on the specific legislative next steps, voting margins, or the provisions’ final status in the broader congressional process. Overall, the outlets agree on the headline figures and the primary categories of spending: a large defence allocation connected to operations involving Iran, alongside separate funding for agriculture and election-related programmes.
