On this week's episode of Bloomberg Government's "Suspending the Rules," Pentagon reporter Travis Tritten examines the ban and what comes next. The House has also scheduled votes on several bills targeting the regime of disputed Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and Russian influence in Europe. Another addresses Medicaid drug rebates and other program changes. In the second segment, BGOV legislative analysts Naoreen Chowdhury and Michael Smallberg break down those measures. Hosts: Adam M.
