The NDAA is up for consideration in the Senate, and SenSchumer will likely have to kill several GOP-proposed amendments to get the military spending bill passed before Congress's August recess. Here are three amendments Schumer will look to kill.
Schumer has until Friday to get the bill passed before September, and, with some amendments passed by the Republican-led House of Representatives, it could be an uphill climb to get it passed in the Democratic-led Senate. Here are three amendments Schumer will look to kill when the Senate votes on the NDAA.One of the most hotly contested policies is the Department of Defense's policy to fund travel for service members to get an abortion.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville has held up military promotions, which must be approved by the Senate, for nearly six months in protest of the policy. Schumer will allow a vote on the policy, but it seems unlikely to pass in the Democratic-controlled chamber.A controversial amendment looking to be brought by a member of the Senate comes from Sen. Roger Wicker , which would block the transfer of submarines as part of the AUKUS security pact, per Punchbowl News.
Schumer, along with Democratic Senate leadership, has indicated he does not want drama with the NDAA in the Senate after it had a turbulent time passing in the House.Another amendment passed in the House that Schumer wants on the chopping block is an effort to cut funding for diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives in the Department of Defense.
When both chambers return in September, the fiscal 2024 budget will be the hot-button subject as the divided Congress looks to avoid a government shutdown. Because of the expected focus of the annual budget for the return from the August recess, the Senate is looking to make the NDAA's passage a chief priority.
