Senate and House Clash Over Defence Reservist Calls
Washington AP The Senate and House remain at odds over how much authority the president should have to mobilize reservists. The fight alters a $58 billion defense appropriation, with the Senate backing a Russell plan to mobilize about 467,000 reservists for up to 24 months without a national emergency, while the House supports about 197,000 and seeks a written, permanent framework. The clash follows the House’s separate reserves bill and current lack of a presidential request for such powers.
