The move came after an effort to send the bill back to the Veterans Affairs Committee failed by just one vote. No information was immediately available on when the bill might come up for a vote again.

The Russian Economy “Is An Illusion” Built On Debt: With the current energy crisis already wreaking havoc on Russia’s economy, a banking crisis may soon erupt as a mountain of debt weighs on consumers and businesses due to bad lending practices.
