The bill, the Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act authorizes policies and programs for the Department of Defense and provides junior enlisted servicemembers with a 14.5% raise.\n\n\u201cThis legislation is a significant commitment to our brave men and women in uniform and refocuses military leadership on its mission to defend the American people and deter military aggression posed by our foremost adversary, the Chinese Communist Party. The bill, the Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act provides junior enlisted servicemembers with a 14.5% raise, takes action to remove Chinese-made drones from our skies, and protects American fundamental research from CCP cooptation, all while cutting $31 billion in inefficient programs, saving valuable taxpayer money. I\u2019m proud to support this bill, and I look forward to seeing additional important national security legislation, like the BIOSECURE Act and outbound investment restrictions, on the House floor in the coming weeks.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T22:13:55Z"]], "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://moolenaar.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/moolenaar-votes-support-servicemembers-and-protect-american-people"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 2.0121729467064142, "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"}
