Stefanik Votes to Pass National Defense Authorization Act Through House

Press Release

"As the leading advocate for Fort Drum and the 10th Mountain Division, I proudly voted to secure initiatives to protect and strengthen the Fort Drum community, fully equip our troops, increase our military readiness, and support the families of Servicemembers in our district. Over the past year, I have worked in a bipartisan manner to give Upstate New York and the North Country a seat at the highest levels throughout this entire process. The United States must never fall behind in providing for a strong national defense. The provisions in this NDAA invest in emerging technologies, secure supply chains of critical components for our military platforms, and ensure military readiness to meet our national security needs. This is critical to promoting peace through strength to deter the rapidly evolving military threats posed by China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. For these reasons, I proudly advanced a defense bill that puts taxpayer dollars to good use by strengthening our military and providing a well-deserved pay raise to our brave men and women in uniform as they work to keep us safe."
