Senate Passes Funding Package That Delays Medicaid Rules; President Bush Expected To Sign Bill

Monday, 30. June 2008

President Bush is expected to sign the measure, which passed the House last week. The supplemental package is made up of two amendments — the first of which provides about $162 billion for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
