It invests in the tools they need to defend our country and come home safely. It strengthens our border, counters global threats, and protects taxpayer dollars. I was proud to support this bill because it honors our commitment to those who serve, and to the values they defend every day.” Background: The Defense Appropriations Bill funds the core activities, operations, and programs of the Department of Defense for a given fiscal year.
