The U.S. House of Representatives is scheduled to consider fiscal 2024 defense spending legislation next week, Majority Leader Steve Scalise said on Friday.
The Republican-controlled House, which returns to Washington on Tuesday from its August recess, will consider an appropriations bill covering defense spending, according to Scalise's weekly floor schedule.
But Republican lawmakers said the party remains split over other appropriations bills, as well as an expected short-term stopgap measure to keep federal agencies operating when current funding expires on Sept. 30. The spending level sought by hardliners is $120 billion lower than what House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Democratic President Joe Biden agreed to earlier this year.
