Senators will vote Thursday on a resolution that would call on the U.S. to pull assistance from the Saudi-led war in Yemen, a measure that would rebuke Saudi Arabia after the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

As the Senate prepares to deliver a historic, bipartisan rebuke of the United States’ continued support for Saudi Arabia’s war effort in Yemen, House lawmakers remain bitterly divided along party lines about whether to challenge President Trump’s continued support for the Kingdom, even in the face of evidence implicating its crown prince in the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

A number of officials have weighed in on the Friday death of former President George H.W. Bush. Here’s a sampling:

WASHINGTON — When Mandel Metals, an aluminum distributor outside Chicago, found its business threatened by President Trump’s tariffs on foreign metals, it filed hundreds of requests with the administration to exclude its imports from the levies.

WASHINGTON - After tapping election season outrage over rising prescription drug costs, Texas Rep. Lloyd Doggett and victorious House Democrats intend to move quickly in the new Congress with proposals to protect consumers from price spikes and ease the financial crush on Medicare.

As elections last week made clear, voters still care a lot about health care. And chief among their concerns are exorbitantly high drug prices. The only point of disagreement is how to bring them down.
