美國會談判通過至九月的聯邦預算

推薦人: 來源: 閱讀: 1.45W 次

U.S. congressional negotiators came to an agreement late Sunday on a $1 trillion spending package that would fund the federal government through September. The deal includes pieces that appeal to both Republicans and Democrats, and if passed by the Senate and House of Representatives would represent the first major bipartisan legislation under President Donald Trump.

美國會談判通過至九月的聯邦預算

Congressional aides said there will be $1.5 billion for border security, but that the money is marked for purposes other than the wall that Trump has championed for the U.S.-Mexico border.

The president did, however, win as much as $15 billion in his push to boost military spending.

Congress must approve the spending bill and Trump needs to sign it before Friday in order to avoid a government shutdown.

Lawmakers already passed a short-term spending measure to avert a shutdown that was due to have begun Saturday. The next round of budget battles would then be about the 2018 fiscal year, which begins October 1st.美國國會談判人員星期天晚間達成1萬億美元的開支計劃,批准了九月底以前聯邦政府的運轉資金。這項協議包括對共和民主兩黨都有吸引力的內容,如果獲得參議院和衆議院的批准,該法案將成爲川普總統執政期間第一個重要的跨黨派議案。

會議員助手們表示,預算法案包括15億美元用於邊境安全,但將用於川普總統力主修建美墨邊境隔離牆以外的項目。

川普總統也有斬獲,他推動增加軍費開支,獲得多達150億美元的增長。

國會必須批准這項開支法案,川普總統需要在本週五前簽署,這樣才能避免政府關門。

國會議員們此前已批准一項短期開支措施,避免了上週六開始可能出現的政府關門。下一輪預算之爭將是10月1日開始的2018財年預算案。
