Rep. Rogers Applauds House Passage of FY26 NDAA

WASHINGTON - House Armed Services Committee Chairman U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers' (AL-03) released a statement praising the House passage of H.R. 3838, the Streamlining Procurement for Effective Execution and Delivery and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026 (FY26 SPEED and NDAA). The bill passed the House with a bipartisan vote of 231-196.

"Today's vote to advance the FY26 NDAA is a vote to modernize our military, support our troops, and restore American deterrence. As we face the most complex global threat environment since WWII, it's critical that the United States has a ready, capable, and lethal fighting force to secure our homeland. Along with the One Big, Beautiful Bill, the FY26 NDAA makes a generational investment in our national defense and implements President Trump's Peace Through Strength agenda.

At the core of this bill is a fundamental reform of the Pentagon's acquisition process. The FY26 NDAA cuts red tape, streamlines bureaucracy, and refocuses acquisition on its most important mission: getting our warfighters what they need when they need it.

In addition to modernizing our military and accelerating innovative technologies, the FY26 NDAA invests in the men and women who serve our country, with a 3.8% payraise for all servicemembers and improved schools, housing, and access to healthcare.

The FY26 NDAA is a strong bipartisan bill that delivers for our warfighters and deters our adversaries. I look forward to advancing it to the president's desk."
