Congressman Tim Walberg (MI-07) voted today for the House-Senate conference report to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017, which funds the military, gives our troops a well-deserved pay raise, and helps keep the American people safe. Congressman Walberg served as a member of the bipartisan conference committee charged with producing the final agreement that passed the House today by a 375-34 margin."In a world of dangerous and emerging threats, our nation's defense capabilities and military readiness must remain second to none," said Walberg. "This bipartisan defense bill is a critical step towards rebuilding our military for the 21st century and ensuring our troops have the training, equipment, and resources in whatever they are asked to do. The men and women who protect our country deserve our unwavering support, and this legislation also gives our troops their largest salary increase in six years." Congressman Walberg serves on the House Education and the Workforce Committee as Chair of the Workforce Protections Subcommittee. In addition, he serves on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
