President Trump Defends New Budget Deal

    President Trump praised the budget bill working its way through Congress.

    FOX’s Jon Decker has more from the White House:

    Facing conservative anger at what critics see as a cave to Democrats on everything from sanctuary cities to funding for Planned Parenthood to lack of funding for a border wall with Mexico, President Trump is defending the $1 trillion-plus budget deal heading for a vote later this week:

    (President Trump) “After years of partisan bickering, and gridlock, this bill is a clear win for the American people.”

    The spending bill, which adds billions for the Pentagon and border security measures, would fund the government through the end of September.

    At the White House, Jon Decker, FOX News.
