Trump vetoes National Defense Authorization Act
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday vetoed the National Defense Authorization Act, sending it back to Congress.

The bill cleared both chambers of Congress earlier this month. On Dec. 11, an 84-13 vote by the 100-seat Senate sent the gargantuan $731 billion bill to the president’s desk, after clearing the House of Representatives earlier this month, and secured a veto-proof majority in both chambers.

“IT’S A GIFT TO CHINA AND RUSSIA”

In a press release, the US president said the bill does not include “critical national security measures” and includes provisions that do not respect veterans and the country’s military history as well as contradicting his administration’s efforts to put America first in national security and foreign policy.

“It’s a ‘gift’ to China and Russia,” said the US president.

Trump said the bill fails to make any meaningful changes to Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which he accused of spreading disinformation online and must be repealed.

Other issues in the bill are the renaming of certain military installations and the bill, according to Trump, restricts “the president’s ability to preserve our Nation’s security by arbitrarily limiting the amount of militarily construction funds that can be used to respond to a national emergency.”

Democrat Senator Mark Warner, who is the Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chair, called Trump’s veto “unconscionable.” “The President’s decision to veto this bipartisan legislation on his way out the door poses a serious threat to U.S. national security,” Warner said in a statement.
