U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ), Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, released the following statement after the President signed the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (NDAA) into law: This years NDAA is one of the most significant pieces of defense reform legislation in a generation. The NDAA modernizes the military retirement system, bans torture, and reforms the broken defense acquisition system. The legislation delivers these reforms while authorizing vital pay and benefits for our troops and making critical investments in the equipment and training they need to confront growing threats to our security. While I am tremendously proud of this years NDAA, this is only the beginning. The Senate Armed Services Committee has already begun a major hearing series on Pentagon reform. It is my hope that working together with Senator Reed, Representative Thornberry, and Representative Smith, we will craft an FY17 defense authorization bill that will deliver further defense reforms that can enable our military to rise to the challenges of a more dangerous world. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
