Washington, December 12 (RHC)-- The U.S. House of Representatives has passed a $895 billion Pentagon bill which includes a ban on gender-affirming care for children of military personnel. 

Vermont Democrat Becca Balint, one of the 140 House members — mostly Democrats — to vote against the National Defense Authorization Act, said: “We cannot continue to bankroll a nearly $1 trillion military budget, while we underfund schools, housing, and more.  It’s long past time we put the urgent needs of working families before giving a blank check to the military industrial complex.”
