Congressman Fred Upton, R-St. Joseph, today issued the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives voted to advance S. 1356, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The NDAA Conference Report that previously had passed the House and Senate was adjusted to match the spending levels set forth in the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 but retains the policies as passed by Congress. The NDAA was a bipartisan process from the start and Im glad to see it moving forward, again, with all due speed, said Upton. President Obama should sign it into law without further delay. Our military, their families, and our veterans deserve nothing less. Last week, Upton joined fellow West Michigan Congressman Bill Huizenga in penning an op-ed for the Holland Sentinel where they outlined their opposition to President Obama vetoing the bipartisan legislation. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
