Defense Bill Includes Authorization of Military Parade in Capitol

President’s Trump’s’ plans to hold a military parade in the nation’s capital are one step closer to taking place.
According to a summary of the National Defense Authorization Act released Friday, the bill will include a provision to authorize a military parade in the nation’s capital.
The provision would also authorize Defense Secretary Mattis to prohibit the use of certain units or equipment if it would hamper readiness.
The Defense Department is aiming to conduct the parade on November 11, which is the 100th anniversary of the conclusion of the first world war.
A full version of the defense bill is set to be released next week.
