Included in this legislation is Rep. Aderholt\u2019s DUAL (Defense United Access to Learning) Act and a proposal to support America\u2019s domestic textile industry.\n\nThe FY26 NDAA includes a 3.8% pay raise for all service members, funds Golden Dome and new capabilities, strengthens deterrence, and ends woke programs to make America safer and stronger.\n\n\u201cAt a time when national security demands are growing, a stronger military means a more secure future. FY26 NDAA delivers real wins for America\u2019s national security, improves quality of life for our dedicated servicemembers, and advances President Trump\u2019s peace-through-strength agenda,\u201d said Congressman Aderholt.\n\nThis year\u2019s NDAA streamlines foreign military sales, enabling more international demand for Alabama-made equipment. It also directly benefits the state of Alabama by investing in military construction at Alabama bases and bolsters innovation through investments.\n\nIncluded in this legislation is Rep. Aderholt\u2019s DUAL (Defense United Access to Learning) Act and a proposal to support America\u2019s domestic textile industry. The DUAL Act, a bill that allows the Department of Defense Education Activity (DODEA) to partner with accredited colleges and universities to offer dual enrollment programs for high school students in military families.\n\nIn addition, Congressman Aderholt\u2019s Amendment #0668 is designed to reform the U.S. domestic textile industry and the Department of Defense\u2019s reported shortfalls. This initiative takes a simple but important step by directing the Department of Defense to look more closely at domestic textile procurement for the American textile industry to play a larger role in meeting our defense needs here at home. It\u2019s a common-sense measure that ultimately would strengthen our national security and support American jobs.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:09:11Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://aderholt.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/aderholt-votes-favor-fy26-national-defense-authorization-act-restores"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5637651085853577, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
