This bill gives our military the resources it needs to recover from severe readiness and training issues. It replenishes our military might by devoting funds for equipment procurement and maintenance, including A-10 wing replacements and upgrades for Strykers and Abrams Tanks. It also provides funding for increased training, and supports the largest pay raise for troops in nearly a decade. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
