This year\u2019s NDAA advances President Trump\u2019s Peace through Strength Agenda,\u201d said Congressman John McGuire. \u201cThis legislation improves the quality of life for all servicemembers, invests in new equipment and systems for enhanced deterrence, removes radical DEI policies from the Department, and improves acquisition reform at the Pentagon so our warfighters get what they need to win now. Virginia is home to numerous defense innovators, installations, and military families. I was proud to support this critical legislation on the floor as it ensures our military is modern and lethal. I promised, when I took office, to deliver for Virginia\u2019s 5th District. This bill does just that and more for the Commonwealth, supporting the growing nuclear industry, advanced manufacturing, and workforce development sectors. I look forward to President Trump signing this critical legislation.\u201d\n\nWatch Rep.
