Democrats in the House of Representatives will introduce a $460 billion (€333.2 billion) military spending bill next week that they will use to challenge the war in Iraq, try to close the Guantanamo Bay prison and increase oversight of defense contractors.
The annual legislation is considered a must-pass bill to finance the military's fleet of vehicles and aircraft, research efforts and service payrolls. It covers the 2008 budget year that begins Oct. 1.
