8 billion authorized by other committees were total of 733 billion that the house is poised to authorize for National Defense and mailing of the pedagogue and also of Nuclear Weapons and a few other agencies here and there. What are some of the key details, first of all a lot that everyone agrees on. In terms of the size of the military and pay raise in oversight of quality and military family housing. And stronger regulation of rubber chemicals in the lot of tricky Water Supplies your military bases. There is plenty of things that they disagree about and i would say the top thing is the amount of money. Which we can get into if you would like. The bill in the past years has been largely past the house on a bipartisan basis, this came out on a partyline vote, 33 to 24 only two republicans supporting the measure, don bacon supporting nebraska. What is it the republicans on the committee and certainly others in the caucus as well, what are their main concerns over the defense major . The total amount of money. The 733 billion we refer to, 17 billion less the triple ministration would like in the companion Defense Authorization bill has endorsed. Two max thornberry, the taxes congressman who is a Top Republican on her services and others who think like him, that is not enough to keep going. To keep the progress going as i recall rebuilding the military. Lets put this in historical perspective. This is the biggest piece in defense history brings only high winds were world war ii and the height of the iraq and afghanistan war. It is a lot of money. Even though it is only about 2 more the current fiscal year. It is not enough money for the republicans on the one hand, it is too much money for democrats on the other especially for progressive democrats. You write about that in one of your cq. Com and you write about the progressive concern over the bill of the defense bill. And Democratic Leaders doing to address some of those issues . They are trying to give progressive democrats votes on many as momentous as possible to mollify them and it sounds like they may be making progress if you listen to what theyre saying. But its going to be difficult especially if republicans in large numbers vote no on the bill. And they are joined by a large number of progressive democrats voting no. Every year a large number of progressive democrats voted no on this bill. Last year it was several dozen it even more the year before. Now in democratic control of the house i dont think that many will but no but it remains to be seen. Its influx as we speak. Among the 400 plus amendments allowed under the rule that you measure an amendment that would prohibit a bipartisan amendment of being engaged in military action against iran without congressional approval by the company democrats and magnates of florida, what other movements are you keeping your eye on . That is a big one, theres another one that would cut on whats 17 billion from the total amount of spending to address the spending concerns of progressives that we refer to. There is another one that would take aim at the president s attempt to restrict recruitment of transgender people into the military. What else will we see, there is plenty of stuff that takes dead aim at the president in terms of spending at trump facility and that sort of thing in taking a nap both sides of the saudi regime. One would require the National Intelligence unclassified determination as to who killed your mom or should you last october. And ways to restrict. The u. S. Senate passed a version of 750 million quickly to buy a bipartisan vote, glancing out that they requested. What are the other details. Besides the dollar figure,. A key thing we have not touched on is the house would be an appointment a Nuclear Warhead in the lower explosive yield and most Nuclear Weapons. It would be launched from a summary. Conservatives think this is necessary to respond to similar developments in the Russian Nuclear force and in our doctorate but more progressive members of congress are concerned that a lower threshold even further on nuclear war to make it more likely. That is a big difference between the two bills imported stuff we have not touched on. The house takes all kinds of actions to strike back and restrict in future the president s use of pedagogue money for border barriers. Guantanamo bay, the house bill would start to phase out at Guantanamo Bay instead of keeping an operation prayed the president wants to build a new facility dollars. The president treaty, the white house in an unusually long ten page statement of Administration Policy is to veto the Defense Authorization. As we wrap up, how did they work this out . Ten pages of objection. How does that get worked out . I think the key for most everything in congress that are on their way. Where do they come out there. The congress and the president have been able to come up with several deals since the 2011 to raise every year. They should be able to do to get but its going to be a high wire act getting there. They will have to deal with an appropriate there is a lot of revisions that the white house doesnt like that which ones they would actually be no, they do not say. I think the find a solution but it will be were difficult than usual because you have Different Party controlling the two chambers which is not been the case.
