The House approved a suspension bill related to health care for veterans. Members also rejected a Democratic motion to instruct its negotiators with the Senate on the fiscal year 2024 National Defense Authorization Act, specifically to instruct conferees to disagree with the section of the NDAA prohibiting the defense secretary from using any funds to pay for or reimburse expenses related to abortion services. That motion failed on a party-line vote of 205-214. Off the floor, House Republicans continued to negotiate the terms of a short-term spending bill as Congress faced a September 30 deadline to fund the government and avoid a shutdown.
