SloveniaThe article discusses the U.S. Congress passing a budget framework with a narrow majority, 216 votes to 214, which allows Republicans to begin preparing legislation under the Congressional Budget Act rules. This would enable them to pass laws in the Senate with a simple majority and without obstruction by the minority. The budget includes funds for the Department of Defense due to tensions with Iran, aid for farmers affected by Trump's tariffs, and money for state-level election security measures. Democrats criticize the allocation, arguing the funds should go toward helping American families rather than continuing military action against Iran. The Senate still needs to approve the same budget framework, where Republican leadership does not yet have full support. The debate over funding comes amid congressional division on U.S. military involvement in the conflict with Iran.
