House Republicans released a draft defense policy bill Tuesday that would maintain limits on troop movements from Europe and South Korea. The measure also bars construction of a new class of battleship until the Navy demonstrates required technology. It seeks to keep existing caps on how many U.S. troops can be withdrawn from the two regions.
Battleship provision The draft text bars construction of the first vessel in a proposed new class until the Navy can prove it has the technology to build it. No timeline for that proof is specified in the released sections. The bill text remains subject to further changes during committee and floor consideration.
