Bush Signs War Funding Supplement
In a statement Monday morning, Bush calls the $162 billion bill a bipartisan success. Spends time thanking Democrats he worked with to get it passed through Congress.
"This bill shows the American people that even in an election year, Republicans and Democrats can come together to stand behind our troops and their families."
Legislation also includes funding for disaster relief and new GI Bill. It also provides 13 extra weeks of jobless benefits of people out of work.
