Dan Newhouse (WA-04) released the following statement after voting in support of the National Security, Department of State, and Related Programs Appropriations Act of 2027. This legislation passed the House by a vote of 217-209.\n\n\u201cAt a time when our Nation\u2019s national security is under constant threat from adversaries, we are delivering on legislation to provide resources to critical agencies that keep us safe,\" said Rep. Newhouse.\n\nNewhouse continued, \"Peace through strength will ensure the United States remains the shining city on the hill as a diplomatic and economic powerhouse. I applaud Chairman Diaz-Balart\u2019s efforts to eliminate wasteful spending while prioritizing the programs that keep Americans safe.\u201d\n\nBackground\n\nThe National Security, Department of State, and Related Programs (NSRP) Appropriations bill provides a total discretionary allocation of $47.32 billion, which is $2.69 billion (6%) below the Fiscal Year 2026 enacted level, and reflects priorities of the America First agenda.\n\nWithin the total cuts, the NSRP bill maintains robust funding for our allies like Israel, Jordan, Egypt, and Taiwan and counters adversaries such as the Communist People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC), Iran, Cuba, and drug cartels \u2013 including those designated as Foreign Terrorist Organizations. The bill supports the President\u2019s vision to refocus and realign foreign policy to make America safer, stronger, and more prosperous, while ensuring all funds are spent in a manner consistent with relevant executive orders.", 1, "2026-07-16T07:21:44Z", "2026-07-16T07:23:13Z"]], "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://newhouse.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/newhouse-votes-strengthen-national-security-support-american-allies"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.0833658743649721, "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"}
