Senate Signs Off on Harvey Relief Package
The Senate signs off on a Harvey relief package that also sets aside a couple of other fiscal fights.
FOX’s Jared Halpern has more from Capitol Hill:
Three legislative priorities met with a single bipartisan vote in the Senate. Republican and Democratic leaders agreeing to a $15 billion disaster relief package that also extends government funding and the nation’s borrowing authority into December.
More than dozen Senate Republicans voted no on the package that was agreed to by President Trump at the request of Democratic leaders.
The House is expected to sign off on the combo legislation this week, though likely with heavy Republican opposition.
