Alabama’s entire federal delegation on Wednesday voted to pass the Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), despite pushback over a provision banning funding for so-called gender-affirming care for minors.
House Armed Services Committee Chair U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Saks) was reportedly unhappy that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) did not consult him before adding a provision from the 2025 National Defense Authorization Act banning so-called gender-affirming care for minors.
U.S. Rep. Dale Strong (R-Monrovia) released a statement on Thursday applauding the passage of the FY25 National Defense Authorization Act and its provisions.
If the only way to get a bill passed through a Republican-majority House is to get a majority of the Democrats to also vote for it, then you can be 100% certain it’s full of unsavory ingredients that will trample your freedoms and spend more of your hard-earned tax dollars on a woke, weaponized and wasteful agenda.
Campaign season is in full swing and on Thursday the first punches of the race between U.S. Rep. Jerry Carl (R-Mobile) and U.S. Rep. Barry Moore (R-Enterprise) were thrown.
On Wednesday, the U.S. Senate passed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) 87-13 to fund the military for fiscal year 2024, which was quickly followed by the U.S. House passing the NDAA 310-118 on Thursday.
The National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2024 includes a provision by U.S. Rep. Dale Strong (R-Huntsville) that prohibits funding from being used to expand U.S. Space Command headquarters in Colorado Springs.
“This bill prioritizes a strong national defense, military readiness, and service members' needs over Biden's far-left, woke agenda at the Department of Defense."
Friday, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the National Defense Authorization Act by a 219-210 vote.
During a Fox News Channel appearance, U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Saks), who serves as the ranking member on the U.S. House Armed Services Committee, weighed in on an ambitious Communist China as a threat to the United States.
“Our military’s role is to protect our Constitutional rights and the American way of life from our enemies at home and abroad, and any bill that undermines those foundational pillars not only harms our national defense but dilutes what makes our nation so worthy of defending. No amount of money authorized to spend on bases or weapons programs could compensate for such dangerous policy missteps that destabilize our nation," Rep. Moore said explaining his decision to oppose the House version of the NDAA.
" I was proud to cast my vote for the Fiscal Year 2023 National Defense Authorization Act. I’m particularly proud that this year's NDAA delivers hard-earned pay raises to Alabama servicemembers and includes initiatives to support cutting-edge research at HBCUs,” Rep. Terri Sewell said.
"This is the first step in the process – the House and Congress have a number of issues to address as we move forward. The Committee was able to blunt the impacts of inflation on the military, accelerated the recapitalization of our nuclear triad, and invest in capabilities and platforms to deter and, if necessary, defeat China and other enemies," said Congressman Mike Rogers
