美國(guó)國(guó)會(huì)爭(zhēng)分奪秒爭(zhēng)取通過一萬三千億美元的開支議案
U.S. congressional leaders have reached a deal on a $1.3 trillion spending bill as a budget deadline looms.
Lawmakers now have until midnight Friday to approve it and prevent the year's third government shutdown. Passage of the massive bipartisan effort seems certain.
The bill, which will keep the government funded until the end of September, has President Donald Trump's support, the White House said in a statement released Wednesday.
The bill will give Trump a huge budget increase for the military, including a 2.4 percent pay raise for military personnel.
It also provides $1.6 billion for physical barriers and 150 kilometers of a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border, short of the $25 billion Trump requested for the project he repeatedly touted on the campaign trail while pledging Mexico would pick up the cost.
"Got $1.6 Billion to start Wall on Southern Border, rest will be forthcoming. Most importantly, got $700 Billion to rebuild our Military, $716 Billion next year...most ever. Had to waste money on Dem giveaways in order to take care of military pay increase and new equipment," Trump said on Twitter.
Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer said there was "plenty" of compromise in the spending package and that members of his party "feel very good."
Democratic Rep. Gregory Meeks said that what the president called "giveaways" were investments in initiatives for military veterans, community health centers, transportation infrastructure and national security.
美國(guó)國(guó)會(huì)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人在最后期限臨近之際，就一萬三千億美元的聯(lián)邦開支達(dá)成一致。
國(guó)會(huì)要在星期五深夜之前表決通過才能避免今年聯(lián)邦政府第三次停擺。幾乎可以肯定議案會(huì)獲得通過。
這項(xiàng)議案為聯(lián)邦政府在今年9月底之前的運(yùn)作提供資金。白宮在星期三公布的一項(xiàng)聲明中說，川普總統(tǒng)支持這項(xiàng)議案。
新開支議案將讓川普總統(tǒng)增加軍費(fèi)開支，其中包括把軍人工資提高2.4%。
議案還提供16億美元在美國(guó)和墨西哥邊境設(shè)置阻攔，建造一個(gè)150公里的圍墻。提供的資金低于川普總統(tǒng)要求的250億美元。川普總統(tǒng)在競(jìng)選總統(tǒng)期間多次提到要建邊界圍墻，還說費(fèi)用由墨西哥支付。
川普總統(tǒng)在推特上說：“得到16億美元在南部邊境開始建墻，其余的資金以后還會(huì)有。最重要的是，得到7000億美元重建我們的軍隊(duì)。明年有7160億美元，最多的軍費(fèi)。為了得到資金給軍人漲工資和增加新的裝備，不得不同意浪費(fèi)一些錢讓民主黨人送大禮。”
民主黨參議員領(lǐng)袖舒默說，為達(dá)成開支案雙方都做出了大量妥協(xié)，民主黨人感覺很好。
民主黨國(guó)會(huì)議員米克斯說，川普總統(tǒng)所說的“送大禮”都是為照顧退伍軍人、改善社區(qū)醫(yī)保中心、加強(qiáng)運(yùn)輸基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施和保護(hù)國(guó)家安全的投入。
