House GOP Delays Vote on Pentagon Funding Bill Amid Conservative Pushback on Spending
-
House GOP leaders delayed a vote on a Pentagon funding bill due to pressure from conservatives on spending levels.
-
The vote was on the rule to outline parameters for considering the legislation.
-
Some conservatives planned to vote against the rule because they wanted top-line spending figures for all appropriations bills.
-
The rule also includes a bill preventing states from banning gas-powered car sales.
-
House members were uncertain there would be enough support to pass the rule and advance the legislation.
