U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman outlines some of the provisions contained within the Military Construction Appropriations Bill passed by the Senate earlier this week. The measure sets aside funding for New Mexicos Air Force Bases—Holloman, Cannon, and Kirtland—as well as White Sands Missile Range and the National Guard facility in Santa Fe.
Bingaman also gives an update on health care reform, which the full Senate is expected to begin debating soon. Majority Leader Harry Reid reported a bill yesterday that combines the health reform bills passed earlier in the year by the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee and the Senate Finance Committee.
