WASHINGTON (AP) — Congress sent President Barack Obama a $607 billion defense policy bill that he is expected to sign even though he adamantly opposes its ban on moving some Guantanamo Bay detainees to U.S. prisons.
The Senate overwhelmingly approved the bill, 91-3, on Tuesday just days after the House passed the bipartisan measure, 370-58. The legislation authorizes Pentagon spending on military personnel, ships, aircraft and other war-fighting equipment.
NEW YORK – New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman ordered Boston-based DraftKings and FanDuel to shut down in his state on Tuesday, calling both illegal online gambling sites.
DraftKings immediately declared its intent to pursue legal response to the Empire State Democrat, according to WBZ News in Boston. Competitor FanDuel in New York slammed the attorney general of its home state, saying his action was politically motivated.
