The bill will now head to the Senate floor. “Historic investments in defense platforms made in Connecticut show continued unshakable confidence in our state’s spectacular workforce,” said Blumenthal. “This strong bipartisan national security package recognizes threats to America now, and in coming years. It underscores a strong commitment to bolstering advanced technologies—submarines, helicopters, and fighter jets—investing in workforce development, and taking care of our military families. I proudly fought for the authorization of the trilateral AUKUS agreement –proving the world-class talent of our workforce in Groton constructing Virginia-class submarines. I look forward to voting on this bipartisan measure in the coming days, and sending it to President Biden’s desk.” The text of the conference report can be found here. -30- | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T01:14:16Z |
