This bill also boosts funding to the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, which is critical for supplying our troops with the ammunition necessary for training and defending our nation.” Highlights from this year’s NDAA include: 5.2 percent increase in servicemember basic pay, the largest pay raise in over 20 years Authorizes monthly bonuses for junior enlisted members to counteract the effects of Biden’s record-high inflation Makes critical investments in improving military housing, education and childcare facilities Rejects the Biden Administration’s request to divest C-130 aircraft, ensuring continued air superiority across the globe. Provides an additional $37.8 million for Lake City Army Ammunition Plant 1 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z 2026-04-08T01:14:16Z
