WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, U.S. Representative Glenn "GT" Thompson (PA-15) voted in favor of the NationalDefense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2027 (NDAA). The bill passed the House by a vote of 216-212.
The FY27 NDAA authorizes $1.15 trillion in national defense discretionary spending to revitalize our defense industrial base, strengthen American deterrence, and support our service members.

Rep. Thompson secured $42.4 million for Penn State's defense research initiatives, including their University Affiliated Research Center (UARC), which is a long-standing partnership between the Department of War and the University to meet the needs of our armed forces and its industries.
