President Biden signed a bill into law Monday increasing overall military spending despite objection to the bill over stripping coverage of transgender medical treatments
"No service member should have to decide between their family’s health care access and their call to serve our nation," the president said in a statement.
The Senate forwarded the bill to Biden after passing it last week by a vote of 85-14. In the House, a majority of Democrats voted against the bill after House Speaker Mike Johnson insisted on adding the provision to ban transgender medical care for children. The legislation easily passed by a vote of 281-140.
Biden also objected to other language in the bill prohibiting the use of money earmarked to transfer detainees held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to some foreign countries and into the United States. He urged Congress to lift those restrictions.
