Cantor hints at Libya defunding bill next week
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) on Thursday hinted that the House could take up a bill to defund U.S. military intervention in Libya as early as next week.Speaking on the House floor, Cantor outlined next week’s House schedule, which he said could include “potential legislation related to the ongoing military conflict in Libya.” House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) said earlier in the day that the House could move to cut off funding for Libya based on inadequate answers from the Obama administration about the U.S. intervention.
