The Congress is readying legislation to fund the wars in Iraq andAfghanistan, and threatening to load up the bill with unrelatedrelated programs and initiatives. The "war supplemental" the Housepassed on May 15 failed to include funding for the war, but it didinclude an artificial timeline for troop withdrawal, codificationof deployment schedules, billions of dollars in unrelated domesticspending, and the blocking of important cost-saving new Medicaidregulations.
