| https://huizenga.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=404195 | House Passes Bipartisan, Bicameral Defense Bill Including Huizenga Provisions to Overhaul the State Department, Counter China, Enhance NATO Commitment | 2025-12-10 | 2025 | 2025-12 | Republican | House | MI | Bill Huizenga | H001058 | huizenga.house.gov | huizenga | https://huizenga.house.gov/news/ | scraper | Today, Congressman Bill Huizenga (R-MI) released the following statement after the House passed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) by a vote of 312-112. This legislation is a bipartisan agreement between the House and Senate to enhance our national security by building a ready, capable, lethal fighting force to deter our adversaries and protect the United States. Importantly, this NDAA includes multiple provisions authored by Congressman Huizenga that address China and Strategic Ports (H.R. 1701), NATO defense spending, and a historic overhauling and streamlining of the public diplomacy arm of the State Department (H.R. 5251). The legislation now heads to the Senate. “Overall, this bipartisan agreement strengthens our national security, provides our troops with a well-deserved pay raise, and enhances our military readiness,” said Congressman Huizenga. “My bipartisan Strategic Ports Reporting Act allows the United States to not only evaluate the strategic investments by China, but more importantly counter China’s expansionist policies in the Western Hemisphere. This NATO provision strongly reinforces the American position that our European Allies meet their new spending commitments of 3.5% on defense and 1.5% on military infrastructure. Lastly, my bipartisan provisions to overhaul public diplomacy and strategic communication at the State Department will make the United States more effective at countering adversaries and promoting American Leadership.” | 1 | 2026-04-04T05:28:40Z | 2026-04-04T05:30:10Z |
