Pentagon seeks $80 billion for Iran war
The U.S. Department of Defense, known as the Pentagon, is seeking an additional $80 billion in funding to cover the costs of the war with Iran, along with other military expenses including missions along the southern border, and efforts to combat drug trafficking in the Caribbean and the Eastern Pacific. The Deputy Secretary of Defense has been in contact with lawmakers to discuss this before approval, raising concerns about depleting munitions stockpiles and the possibility of running out of funding during the summer. Washington is also witnessing a debate over the need for legislative approval before providing the funds, amid disagreements between the Democratic and Republican parties regarding the priorities of military spending.
