The House of Representatives has approved the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2026, according to a statement released by Representative Mike Rogers (R-AL), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee.
In his remarks, Rogers emphasized the challenges facing national security and highlighted key features of the bill. "As we face the most complex security environment since World War II, the FY26 NDAA delivers on President Trump’s Peace Through Strength agenda and ensures our warfighters are the most ready, lethal, and capable force in the world," he said.
Rogers pointed to significant changes within the legislation. "At the core of this bill is a fundamental overhaul of the Pentagon’s broken acquisition system. The FY26 NDAA cuts red tape and focuses defense acquisition on one mission: getting our warfighters the capabilities they need, when they need them," he stated.
He also noted bipartisan support for the measure. "This is a strong, bipartisan bill that supports our servicemembers and their families, revitalizes our defense industrial base, and sends a clear message to our adversaries. I urge the Senate to quickly pass the FY26 NDAA so President Trump can sign it and we can begin implementing his agenda."
