WASHINGTON — The Senate will vote on full-year funding bills for the US military construction, veterans affairs and food stamp benefits, among other spending items, in the latest bid by Republicans to lure centrist Democrats into voting with them to end the record-breaking government shutdown, The Post has learned. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) told GOPers in a closed-door meeting Thursday that the funding provisions for military construction and the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Agriculture will be tacked on as an amendment to the stopgap measure already rejected 14 times by all but three Democrats. That’s kept it from clearing the 60-vote filibuster in the upper chamber — despite Sens.
