"The FY24 NDAA provides our servicemembers with a well-deserved pay raise — the highest in 20 years —and expands our defense and deterrence capabilities to counter China's aggression and support our freedom-loving allies like Taiwan and Israel. Additionally, the NDAA eliminates wokeness from our military and invests in the cutting edge technologies to best equip our troops against growing global threats. I will continue advocating for a strong national defense, supporting our troops, and working to re-establish the peace through strength doctrine to keep America safe." - Congresswoman Ashley Hinson Background: The FY24 NDAA authorizes $886.3 billion for national defense discretionary programs including: Enhancing U.S. deterrence and strengthening capabilities to counter the CCP’s aggression in the Indo-Pacific by strengthening supply chains and reaffirming U.S. support for the defense of Taiwan and Pacific allies. Providing a 5.2% increase in basic pay for servicemembers. Enhancing DoD support for border security by fully funding the National Guard to support border deployment and combating illegal drug trafficking. Continuing to prohibit any COVID-19 vaccine requirement. The FY24 NDAA saves $40 billion by: Cutting inefficient defense programs, obsolete weapons systems, and unnecessary Pentagon bureaucracy. Ending wokeness in our military by resetting the DoD’s mission and prohibiting funding for Critical Race Theory, ends Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), includes a Parents Bill of Rights to ensure parents of children in DoD schools are included in their child’s education, and prevents military Green New Deal. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T01:14:16Z |
