Brady: That is why I voted today to give our fighting men and women the best equipment they need to defend themselves and our country
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. Congressman Kevin Brady (R-TX) released the following statement on the passage of the National Defense Authorization Act which funds the Department of Defense and Americas armed forces.
America is at war yet the irresponsible Obama White House continues to dangerously hollow out our military. That is why I voted today to give our fighting men and women the best equipment they need to defend themselves and our country. This bill restores the strength and agility of our military forces making them combat ready. As important it provides the care and support they deserve when they return home.
Background: The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2017 is the primary way Congress meets its most important constitutional obligation to provide for the common defense. It advances the vital funding and authorities that Americas military needs.
