WASHINGTON - The U.S. House of Representatives on Friday failed to pass a $19.1 billion disaster aid bill supported by President Donald Trump, but is expected to try again early next month.
But since the House did not go through regular, more time-consuming procedures, it needed the consent of all of its current 432 members to approve the bill.
