The Senate on Tuesday passed by a vote of 86-11 a bill providing aid to military veterans exposed to toxic burn pits during their service, after the two parties agreed to a series of amendment votes.
The Senate attempted to advance the legislation, called the Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics (PACT) Act, last week. But Republicans, who previously supported the bill, largely opposed it, alleging that the spending lacked proper guardrails.
