House Approves $19 Billion Disaster Aid Bill Passage on the $19 billion relief package had <br />been delayed over the last couple of weeks. During that time, three GOP congressman objected to <br />approving the bill through the <br />process of unanimous consent. The legislation, which already was <br />passed by the Senate, now just needs <br />President Trump's signature. It will give aid to parts of the U.S. struck by recent natural disasters like hurricanes and flooding. What the package does not include is <br />border funding demanded by <br />Trump and Republicans.
