In order for the bill to move on to President Biden\u2019s desk, each chamber must pass the same version of the bill.\n\n\u201cI am honored to be chosen as a conferee. Ensuring that our military is fully funded is our best line of defense against our adversaries,\u201d said DesJarlais. \u201cI will work to make sure that Arnold Air Force Base, Fort Campbell, Y12 National Security Complex, and other Tennessee military assets have the resources they need to continue providing valuable capabilities to our armed forces.\u201d\n\nHouse and Senate members appointed as conferees will negotiate and vote on a final version of the bill that will then be sent back to House and Senate floor to be voted on by all members.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T00:37:48Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://desjarlais.house.gov/media-center?ID=5C2D4F68-8994-4E87-92A9-3BA199901843"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.566834282130003, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
