McCaul | M001157 | mccaul.house.gov | mccaul | https://mccaul.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Congressman Michael McCaul (R-Texas) issued the following statement after voting for the Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement Act and the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025. “The world is on fire, our adversaries are on the move, and the United States cannot afford to fall behind,” said Rep. McCaul. “I was proud to support this year’s National Defense Authorization Act to restore the focus of our military back to lethality, give our warfighters the tools they need to combat our adversaries, and counter the increased aggression of the Unholy Alliance. But most importantly, this bill improves the quality of life of our brave men and women in uniform. It authorizes a pay raise, improves housing, and provides adequate healthcare to ensure these heroes have access to the resources they earned.” Rep. McCaul also supported many other conservative victories in the FY25 NDAA, which: Authorizes a 14.5% pay raise for junior enlisted servicemembers and supports a 4.5% pay raise for all other servicemembers; Constructs new housing and childcare facilities for military families; Expands access to medical care, including mental health providers for servicemembers; Restores the focus of our military on lethality by ending radical Democrat policies, strengthening the United States defense industrial base, and supporting innovation; Deters the Chinese Communist Party by providing deterrence in the Indo-Pacific, preventing Chinese espionage, and supporting Taiwan; Defends our ally Israel by supporting it with the weapons it needs to counter Iran-backed terrorist groups; Secures our southern border by supporting law enforcement operations; and Cuts wasteful spending within the Department of Defense, saving taxpayer dollars. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T22:13:55Z |
