Congress Debates Spending Limits and Anti-China Policy
What happened
Congressional debates are centered on the power of the purse, which allows Congress to limit or mandate presidential spending. If Democrats regain control of the House of Representatives and the Senate, they could limit funding for the Iran war and military aid to Israel.

Why it matters
The legislative body's control over funding could significantly alter foreign policy commitments. The push for anti-China policy aligns with a broader effort to pivot against Beijing's state-capitalist model.
The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed legislation funding overseas mining investments as part of a pivot against Beijing's state-capitalist model.
