In the face of these threats, it is our military men and women who keep our nation safe. Today, the House passed the annual National Defense Authorization Act ensuring they have the resources they need to get the job done. “This bipartisan bill boosts base funding, closes the readiness gap, and maintains the prohibition on transferring Guantanamo Bay detainees to American soil. Ultimately, our armed forces are only as strong as the men and women who serve and our bill makes sure they are rewarded by providing the largest troop pay increase in six years. We are blessed to have the best military in the world and I’m proud to support this NDAA to maintain that strength.” For additional information on the FY2017 NDAA courtesy of the House Armed Services Committee click here. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
