Budget bill fuels anti establishment mood amid oil export boost
Kansas Republican Tim Huelskamp calls the package an early Christmas present for Trump as he headlines a Cedar Rapids rally. Democratic presidential hopefuls prepare for a nationally televised debate on ABC at 7 p.m. Iowa time. The bill lifts the decades old U S crude export ban and tightens visa rules for some foreign visitors linked to terrorism while extending dozens of tax breaks and reversing sequestration. It funds Pentagon and Pell Grants and preserves Planned Parenthood funding and gun violence research, with bipartisan agreement on 9 11 victim families funds and cyber security measures. Grassley Ernst Cruz Paul Sanders voted no. Graham voted yes. Rubio absent. Tribune Washington Bureau Reuters contributed.
